Dobrodzień [Guttentag], known as the city of carpenters, hides several monuments, including a 19th-century manor house. The history of the town itself reaches back to the 13th century. Throughout its history, Dobrodzień belonged to the Piasts, Hohenzollerns, and Habsburgs; it was the property of Saxon kings, part of the German state, and finally found itself within the borders of Poland. Probably in the 15th century, a castle surrounded by earthen ramparts and a palisade was erected in Dobrodzień. It is difficult to find information on this Dobrodzień castle, mentioned in 1452. It likely survived until the 19th century, when it was dismantled, and in its place, a manor in the neoclassical style was built between 1848 and 1849 for Ferdinand Schreiber. The manor was built on a rectangular plan. It is a brick, plastered, two-story building covered with a hipped roof. On one side, it is accessed through a wooden porch. The elevations are decorated with thickenings resembling pillars (pilasters). Surrounding it were manor buildings, a grange, farmhands' quarters, and a granary. On the site of a former pond, known as the castle pond, a landscape park was created between 1884 and 1914, which was renovated in 2003. It features a stone bridge from 1610. The manor was renovated in the first half of the 20th century and currently houses a hotel and restaurant.
