"BRAMA ODRZAŃSKA"("ODRZAŃSKA GATE") is a fragment of defensive wall that is a decoration of Odrzański Park. The gate used to be one of the 5 gates that led to the Silesian town.

Gate made of sandstone, in shape of a triumph arch with a semi-circled, ornamented archivolt with a coat of arms of Brzeg holding by an angel in a key. In by-archs there are fully-plastic heads of kinghts. Above it, there is an attic wall ornamented with coats of arms of the duke Joachim Fryderyk and his wife Anna Maria von Anhalt held by two pairs of lions. Above them, there is a frieze with latin inscription: VERBUM DOMINI MANET IN AETERNUM. In 1895, after bringing down the bastion, the gate was transported into the castle's garden.
