thumb|Palace Schlodien, reconstruction 2024 Gładysze is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wilczęta, within Braniewo County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.

==History== The village was first mentioned as Schklodien or Sklodien, a name of Old Prussian origin, that probably refers to the initial owner "Sklode", which is an Old Prussian name. The village was the property of the von Werner family until 1643, when the area was bought by a member of the Dohna family and remained within this family up to 1945. Christoph I. zu Dohna-Schlodien inherited the village in 1688 and decided to build a representative palace. He employed Jean de Bodt with the construction, which was erected in 1701-1704.
