Villa Greifenberg

A villa-like building in an architectural style and with a room layout that are not typical of the region of Jagniątków, built in 1861 by a member of Wrocław’s aristocracy, who identified himself using the initials G.H.

Greifenberg Villa can be reached by 19th-century granite stairs, crowned with a glazed, wooden porch leading to the entrance hall, which welcomes the guests with spacious interior and warm fireplace. Natural materials were used for the construction and the interior design to achieve harmony with the beauty of Nature surrounding the building. Renovated, decorative elements of the roof and the façade with ledges and the monolithic balcony deck make Greifenberg Villa one of a kind.

In 2016–2018, the building was renovated and adapted to accommodate guests visiting Greifenberg Villa and the picturesque Giant Mountains (Karkonosze).

Villa Greifenberg – History

Erected in the 19th century, the building has had several owners, becoming a living monument of the multicultural and rich past of Jagniątków.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the Villa was a boarding house for girls attending the elite Agnetendorf school managed by Sara Elise Höniger. Until 1946, the building had been rented out to many important figures of the region, such as Gerhart Hauptmann, a Noble Prize winner whose life and writings were inherently connected with Jagniątków.In subsequent years, the Villa was passed from hands to hands — until 1946, it was a home for a Wrocław notary and his family; in the ‘50s it was used as a hall of residence for the students of the Wrocław Veterinary Department; later, the building served as an accommodation facility for the Grunwald guesthouse complex in Jagniątków. In the second half of the ‘90s, the Villa was acquired by Greifenberg family.

Jagniątków is situated at the foot of the Giant Mountains in the Wrzosówka valley (450–620 m a.s.l.) in the direct vicinity of the Giant Mountains National Park and tourist routes ideal for hiking and cycling mountain trips.

Formerly Agnetendorf, Jagniątków became a popular tourist destination in the 19th century and it still takes your breath away with its beautiful panorama of the Giant Mountains and picturesque location in the midst of nature. This is an excellent place for those who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life and everyday rush, as well as those who value freedom and privacy, looking for charming settings outside crowded tourist resorts.

Thanks to its location, Jagniątków is perfect for spending your spare time actively — by going for hiking and cycling trips in the mountains or the nearby, picturesque forests. There are two tourist routes that lead from the town — “Pod Dębem” and “Jagniątków” — which can take you to, for example, the Chojnik Castle or the highest peak of the north-western Giant Mountains (Grzybowiec), or the Czarny Kocioł Jagniątowski cirque.
