Summary/Abstract: The park in Kłodzin was established in the 19th century. It is located on a hill with a panoramic view of the Pasł􀄊ka River valley. The park, rectangular in shape, occupies a total area of 0.73 ha. A manor house built in its south-western part was burnt during the Second World War. The ruins were pulled down in 1956, and only the foundations have survived until today. After the parceling out of land that took place in the years 1945 – 1946, the estate was taken over by the State and was used by the State-owned Farm Morąg. In 1990 it passed into private hands. Well-preserved fragments of old-growth forest, composed of Acer platanoides L., Tilia cordata Mill., Quercus robur L. ‘Fastigiata’ in the columned and conical form, and Picea abies Link, can be found along the southern and eastern boundary of the park. There are no trees in the central part of the park, except for a single, widely-spreading English oak. There is an alley of lime-trees at the eastern boundary of the park, and a tree-line composed of limes and maples at the southern boundary.
