Summary/Abstract: This article presents the last surviving work of the Berlin architect Friedrich Gilly (1772–1800) – the Mausoleum of the Von Hoym Family, located in the palace park in Brzeg Dolny (Dyhernfurth) in Silesia. The building was constructed in 1800–1802 in the form of a four-column Doric prostyle temple of sandstone blocks, in accordance with the principles of ancient Greek architecture. Its very poor state of preservation requires the intervention of a preservationist. Undertaking restoration efforts is currently hampered by the ownership rights of the ruin. This article aims to draw attention to this problem.
