In the village of Szałsza, near Gliwice, there are two interesting historic buildings: one is the seventeenth-century wooden church of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary; the other is the palace of von Groeling, which is adjacent to the church. The palace was built in the nineteenth century. It was constructed, making use of an older eighteenth-century building. Today, we can admire a nice example of a neo-Gothic palace, which refers to the Tudor style. The palace now remains in private hands.
