Awesome park with lots of trails on both Polish and German side. Castle restored 25-30years ago is charming

Amazing views. Pretty big park great to visit by bicycle

Amazing park, a lot of trails to walk and enjoy.

Great park alongside the German-Polish border. Make sure to check out the old castle at the German side.

Unexpectedly interesting place on the both sides of the Polish-German border.

Oh my God this place is awesome

Amazing place . I recommend

nice service, big choice of everything, tasty beer. It's a pity that the excursion can be in a group and in advance you need to find out on what day in what language. But we were pleased even with this store - cafe.

A very pleasant place to sit with a beer.

Great beer! Tour is only in German, but even with my terrible German I had a good time! Seeing the bottling line in action was very cool.

Had a great time at the brewery. Would recommend.

I went into the bar the staff were very polite and recommended me a very tasty pilsner beer, the place has a great atmosphere

Great complex, Brewery, Shop, Restaurant.

Enjoied tour by Kretschmar. Very good beer!

On a picturesque bank holiday, my family and I ventured to Görlitz, eager to immerse ourselves in its enchanting old town, highlighted by the imposing St. Peter's and Paul's church. Dominating the skyline with its majestic twin towers, the church stands as a beacon of the Middle Ages, casting its historical spell over the town. However, our excitement was tempered by disappointment as we discovered the church to be closed. Despite this setback, its exterior beauty alone was enough to leave us in awe, imagining the splendor hidden within its walls. While unable to explore its interior, the church undeniably serves as a captivating centerpiece of Görlitz's rich history. Despite the missed opportunity, I wholeheartedly recommend a visit to this architectural gem, a testament to Görlitz's storied past and a must-see for any enthusiast of historical marvels.

it is not open now，2025，April

From what we could see, the building was indeed beautiful and impressive. Unfortunately we arrived in the middle of a performance on the church organ, and so it was not possible to wander around. We sat through about fifteen minutes of fairly simple tunes, with commentary, after which we got up and left (and although entrance is free, and we hadn't come for the organ performance, there was someone asking for donations at the exit). Outside, we looked at the view (also quite impressive) for a few minutes, then walked round the back of the church. As we did so, we heard some tremendous playing - we thought it was probably a piece by Bach, although we couldn't actually identify it - and stood by a wooden door to listen. We went on a Thursday and arrived at about 12:20. So my advice is - check before you go that there is no event scheduled, and if you do go to an organ performance, stay to the end (but maybe take something to read during the first half hour).

Its a historical place and also recognised by unesco

Beautiful architecture, but almost empty.

huge but cold, and empty in spirit and heart. built to look down - and to weight down - on you. you'll feel less alone (and you'll even be greeted by the lovely smile of a beautiful Mary) in the church of the Holy Trinity.

It's a nice old church full of history. When you wanna take pictures it costs 1.5 euros. Entrance is free

This is an absolute must-visit if you're exploring northern Czechia. The architecture is stunning, with a mix of Gothic and Renaissance styles, and the interiors are incredibly well preserved. We were surprised to find a Polish-speaking guide, which made the whole experience much more engaging and informative for us. The guide was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and friendly. We were offered to store our jackets and motorcycle helmets, which made exploring the castle much more comfortable. It was very nice move :) The views from the castle are also breathtaking, and the surrounding town adds to the charm. Whether you're a fan of history, architecture, or just enjoy exploring unique places.

Very nice castle, well preserved with original furniture, paintings armor etc.

This is the best castle you can find in the whole Czhec Repúblic!!!

On-time Tour guide, visitor-friendly, approachable and insightful. Lovely customer experience. Pałace itself very well taken care of. Attention to detail in renovating and decorations. One can even enjoy fresh flowers indoors. Very recommendable visit!

Beautiful castle and sourrondings. We have not entered the castle rooms as we have a dog but it is worth to see even without that:) entrance to the main square and sourroindings for free, even with a dog. It is a short walk, about 15 mins from the city center.

One of the most beautiful manor houses in the area, unique through its fusion of a renaissance castle and a baroque chateau, as well as its mostly intact interiors. There is also a very nice park with a small pond right next to the castle.

Really worth visiting. It looks small but there is a lot to see and it’s all in really good condition. Gives you a proper feeling of the history and the place

The castle was absolutely magical! 🏰✨ Surrounded by peaceful forests and a lovely lake, the whole area feels like a dream. 🌳🌊 It’s so calm and serene — perfect for a quiet escape into nature. If it’s your first time visiting a castle, get ready for a real-life fairy tale moment! 😍 The view of the castle is simply breathtaking — like something straight out of a storybook. 📖💫 I couldn’t stop smiling the entire time! Truly a place that fills your heart with wonder. 💖 Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience a little enchantment!

I’m leaving my opinion with regards to the visit to the castle, not the hotel. Unfortunately the trip went bad. We have a 2 years old daughter and my wife is 7 months pregnant. Usually this is not an issue and we are used to travel quite a lot, our daughter as well. We visit castles, museums etc. When a visit involves going down or up a very narrow tower or suffocating space, the guide informs visitors in advance. Well, not here. The group was quite numerous for those spaces and at the end of the tour, we were invited to visit the cellars but, little did we know that this involved going down a very very claustrophobic space. So my wife had to go back almost fainting and my little daughter didn’t handle that and I had to follow my wife. Of course with ZERO help from the guide or other visitors. That was just..bad. Overall the experience as a human was negative.

As a foreigner non polish speaking person the experience was mediocre at best. We were told that we could not see the castle unless we joined a tour. They only offered polish speaking tours apparently. The guide seemed mad at us for being there. Very poorly serviceminded. The castle it self was beautiful. But would it recommend for non polish speakers.

The promotional materials claim that the castle looks like something out of Harry Potter… well, that’s quite an exaggeration. I get that they need to attract tourists somehow, but the PR team really let their imagination run wild here. Take that description with about 2% truth—maybe even less. But the surroundings, especially in autumn, are truly beautiful.

Fantastic place to visit with great history. As a hotel I would say it mid-range, with simple breakfast and small car park. But the surroundings makes up for that. And quite expensive to be honest.

It’s true that the castle and its grounds are spectacular — perched above the river with rose gardens and fountains, with its old walls and ramparts intact. The hotel, on the other hand, is a letdown. First, hotel parking was not free nor was it close to the castle. Written info on the castle is not available in English (confusing, as some signage inside is in English). There is no seating in the lobby, which is OK only when weather is nice. The vast majority of the castle is not accessible, nor was a tour offered when I checked in. There are amenities listed online and in their brochure that do not exist (e.g. a sauna and spa facilities). Wifi was spotty and at times did not work at all. think it’s a shame that one of Europe’s most spectacular castle hotels is, as it turns out, not very nice at all.

I was expecting more, at least something like Książ. Unfortunately, the group was quite big and noisy and at times it was hard to hear the guide. The castle itself is just average, not more than that. The ticket price is 10 euros for an adult, which is 5 times more expensive than in some Spanish castles. I wouldn't go there again and wouldn't recommend it to my friends either.

The location of Stalag Luft III is within a beautiful forest where the ruins are located. As been stated, this is a famous World War II historical site made famous by the Steve McQueen movie "The Great Escape". Interesting walk through the ruins with informative placards.

Great wee museum, cash only entry, they take ZL and Euro. €5 entry. Museum building with detailed information and artifacts. Full recreated POW hut. Then go 1km out into the woods, still on the POW Camp site to see the site. Of bits 104 105 and tunnel Harry. You can drive there. There's also a memorial to the 50 escaped officers that were shot. Great Escape. 👍

Be aware that the museum doesn't open until 10am. That aside, it's a fantastic place to visit and helps to tell the story of life in Stalag Luft lll. I felt that I understood the escape much better after I had visited here and I consider it a must do for all fans of the story

Incredible location. Out in the middle of the woods with no restrictions on access. A poignant reminder of the bravery and determination of those that fought for the freedom of Europe. Be aware the museum nearby is closed on a Monday.

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always wanted to go to the real great escape camp. My pops showed me this movie when I was 13 and I’ve watched it a lot throughout my life. So on my first euro trip I included Poland in it for a few days, rented a car and drove from Wroclaw, about 95 miles. The actual site is about a half a mile away from the museum which is really cool! The woman there didn’t speak English, you’re in zagan so it’s expected, I didn’t have cash, they require cash but she nicely let me in. I spent about two hours at stalag luft 3, there isn’t much there but remains, but it’s beautiful. Can’t believe I finally made it there.

A real experience to walk around the remains of the camp and to view where 'Harry' tunnel ran. Shocking murders by the Gestapo of 50 escapees who were selected for death from all those who made their bid for freedom during 'The Great Escape'

A must on my to do list. Had guided tour which i ways enables you to get all the info and appreciate everthing more.

Beautiful waterfall and great experience! There’s a small entry fee to get closer to the falls, and they provide helmets for safety. The walk is scenic, and the view up close is amazing. Definitely worth a visit!

Nice waterfall, we got to see it strong after a rainy day. Expensive for what it is, the paid section to the bottom literally takes 5 minutes. It is cool to see however. Free to look from top. I hate they paved the path up there, it is supposed to make it accessible for seniors but nobody's grandma is going up that hill! It takes 15 minutes to walk there from the parking lot.

Beautiful place and very short walk from the main road. There are two parking lots. The one at the entrance is small and gets full quite fast. The second one near the intersection is a good choice. The waterfall is really beautiful. It gets icy on the trail there, so crampons are highly recommended.

Lovely walk through the forest to the waterfall. Quite a steep track at the end and steps to climb to the waterfall viewing area. We were lucky that it was a quiet time and we had good views.

Waterfall is an amazing natural spot surrounded by peaceful forest. The walk to get there is easy and refreshing, and the sound of the waterfall is just magical. Great place for photos and a short hike — definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!

You really should go visit Mumlava waterfall instead it's really close, it's free ( beside pay parking ) and it's a really nice area and waterfall, instead of waiting for a looooong time and pay for going down to see this waterfall.

Really nice experience for family or group of friends💗

Great view on Karkonosze mountains.

Super

(Translated by Google) I went on a "girls' trip" in July. We hiked through the woods, getting lost along the way. We made it about 18 km back home. The entire trip was called "High Stone." I think this place will forever be etched in my memories! In August, I took my kids, and they also managed to climb it (7.9 km from Kilinskiego Street on foot, then back through Death's Curve). I think it's worth it! The trail is great; you can get tired, but it's not too long. Along the way, you can visit the viewpoint at the train station. The place itself – for me – is magical! I met the lovely owner, who told me the story of her husband and this place! Fantastic people who show that it's worth following your dreams, and sometimes you have to "run for them"! I'm enchanted and delighted! There's always cider, coffee, and other refreshments waiting at the shelter. A beautiful, well-kept place. I wish you lots of strength for your future endeavors! I envy your courage and I'm looking forward to what my 40th birthday will bring me ;) Best regards - next year, as I promised, I'll be back with Rogale Marcinskie :) (Original) Byłam w lipcu na "babskiej wyprawie". Szłyśmy przez lasy gubiąc się po drodze. Z powrotem do domu wyszło nam ok 18 km. Cała wyprawa, była pod hasłem "Wysokiego Kamienia". Myślę, że na zawsze zostanie zapisane to miejsce w moich wspomnieniach! W sierpniu zabrałam dzieci, które też dały radę wejsc (7,9 z ul.Kilinskiego pieszo, przez zakręt śmierci z powrotem). Uważam, że warto! Trasa faja, można się zmęczyć, ale nie jest zbyt długa. Po drodze można zajrzeć na punkt widokowy na stacji PKP. Samo miejsce - dla mnie magiczne! Poznałam przesympatyczną właścicielkę, która opowiedziała mi historię jej męża i tego miejsca! Fantastyczni ludzie, którzy pokazują, że warto iść za marzeniami, a czasem "trzeba je wybiegać"! Jestem oczarowana i zachwycona! W schronisku zawsze czeka jabłecznik, kawka i inne napoje. Piękne, zadbane miejsce. Życzę dużo sił na dalsze pomysły! Zazdroszczę odwagi i czekam, co mi moje 40-te urodziny przyniosą ;) Pozdrawiam serdecznie - za rok, jak obiecałam, wrócę z Rogalami Marcinskimi :)

(Translated by Google) The worst hostel I've ever been to! No hot meals, only chips, croissants, and beer. Oh, I forgot, there's also apple pie for 18 złoty and tea for 10 złoty, which we were served in a paper cup. When we asked about the restroom, we were told it was under renovation (judging by the reviews, it had been for several years). The icing on the cake was the "supervisor" sweeping the room while we were eating. One star for the apple pie, because you can't give it a zero. It's best to steer clear 😏 (Original) Najgorsze schronisko w jakim kiedykolwiek byłem ! Brak ciepłych posiłków, tylko chipsy, rogaliki i piwo. A zapomniałem jest jeszcze szarlotka za 18 zł i herbata za 10zł, którą nam podano w papierowym kubku. Na pytanie o toaletę usłyszeliśmy, że jest w remoncie (już kilka lat wnioskując z opini) Wisienką na torcie było, zamiatanie sali podczas naszej konsumpcji przez "amninistratora" Jedna gwiazdka za szarlotkę, bo nie da się dać 0. Lepiej omijać szerokim łukiem 😏

(Translated by Google) I stayed at this shelter while hiking the trail and had really fond memories of my stay. The staff was friendly, and you could always ask for directions or trail conditions. The room was simple, but clean and warm, and the food was delicious and reasonably priced – a great soup after a long day of hiking. The biggest plus is the atmosphere – in the evening, we met other hikers in the dining room, chatted over tea, and immediately felt that typical mountain atmosphere. It's not a hotel, so there are no luxuries, but the shelter meets exactly what you'd expect – a roof over your head, warm food, and a friendly atmosphere. I'd love to return. (Original) Byłem w tym schronisku podczas przejścia szlakiem i naprawdę miło wspominam pobyt. Obsługa życzliwa, zawsze można było zapytać o drogę czy warunki na trasie. Pokój prosty, ale czysty i ciepły, a jedzenie smaczne i w rozsądnych cenach – świetna zupa po całym dniu wędrówki. Największym plusem jest klimat – wieczorem w jadalni spotkaliśmy innych piechurów, pogadaliśmy przy herbacie i od razu poczuło się tę typowo górską atmosferę. Nie jest to hotel, więc luksusów nie ma, ale schronisko spełnia dokładnie to, czego się po nim oczekuje – dach nad głową, ciepłe jedzenie i sympatyczna atmosfera. Chętnie wrócę.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful place, with unforgettable views. The apple pie is delicious, but it's a shame there's no toilet for tourists, and it's a permanent fixture there (I've been there three times in two years). Please remember when visiting this place that you should relieve yourself in the bushes. (Original) Miejsce piękne, widoki niezapomniane. Szarlotka smaczna, szkoda tylko, że nie ma toalety dla turystów i tak tam jest na stałe (w ciągu 2 lat byłem trzy razy). Proszę pamiętać wybierając się do tego miejsca, że tematy fizjologiczne załatwia się w krzakach.

(Translated by Google) The ascent to Wysoki Kamień is a very pleasant trip with beautiful views, although not for everyone. We set off from the free parking lot at Zakręt Śmierci, from where a well-marked trail leads, the length of the route in one direction is approx. 3.5 km. The trail is very steep in places and practically the entire way rocky, which makes it demanding for children. The route is definitely not suitable for people in wheelchairs. At the top, a wonderful reward awaits - a panorama of the Karkonosze, Jizera Mountains and the Jelenia Góra Valley is really impressive. You can also rest in the shelter, where drinks and snacks are available. However, you have to reckon with the typical prices for mountain shelters, but beer tastes best after entering 🤣. It is worth taking something of your own, especially if you are going with children. The route is demanding, but satisfying, provided that you are prepared both physically and organizationally (e.g. with your own provisions). Pd. It is also worth remembering that even in beautiful weather at the bottom, it can be very windy at the top, so a warmer jacket or windbreaker will definitely come in handy, especially if you plan to stay longer at the top. (Original) Wejście na Wysoki Kamień to bardzo przyjemna wycieczka z pięknymi widokami, choć nie dla każdego. Wyruszyliśmy z bezpłatnego parkingu przy Zakręcie Śmierci, skąd prowadzi dobrze oznakowany szlak długość trasy w jedną stronę to ok. 3,5 km. Szlak miejscami jest bardzo stromy i praktycznie całą drogę kamienisty, co sprawia, że może być wymagający dla dzieci. Trasa zdecydowanie nie nadaje się dla osób na wózkach inwalidzkich. Na szczycie czeka wspaniała nagroda panorama na Karkonosze, Góry Izerskie i Kotlinę Jeleniogórską naprawdę robi wrażenie. Można też odpocząć w schronisku, gdzie dostępne są napoje, przekąski. Trzeba jednak liczyć się z typowymi dla górskich schronisk cenami, ale za to piwo smakuje najlepiej po wejściu 🤣. Warto zabrać coś własnego, zwłaszcza jeśli idzie się z dziećmi. Trasa wymagająca, ale satysfakcjonująca pod warunkiem, że jesteśmy przygotowani zarówno fizycznie, jak i organizacyjnie (np. z własnym prowiantem). Pd. Warto też pamiętać, że nawet przy pięknej pogodzie na dole, na górze potrafi bardzo mocno wiać, więc cieplejsza kurtka lub wiatrówka zdecydowanie się przyda, szczególnie jeśli planujecie dłuższy postój na szczycie.

It's a very historically important church. It's a wooden church with beautiful exterior architecture. There's a small cemetery surrounding the church. While many churches in Poland are free to enter, this one costs 14 zł, with an additional 5 zł if you have a camera. I didn't go in because there were large groups of people inside.

Worth to see, very nice little wooden church with beautiful well maintained grounds. Ticket is cheap and you can spend there as much time as you want. To there there you can leave your car on paid parking and take a walk. Some little shops and coffee places around. View is spectacular

A small wooden Viking-style church surrounded by a small old cemetery. The steep trip up will reward you with breathtaking views. What I don’t accept personally is paying an entrance fee to a church!

Karpacz and Wang Church are kinda places you should visit before die! I had visit there by my bike 🚲, saw amazing nature and had an amazing experience.

If you want to see an original Norwegian Stave Church without travelling North, that is the solution. The history behind is even more interesting. Definitely worth visiting.

Such a beautiful building in beautiful surroundings. Well worth the trip. A printed sheet of the narrative is available in different languages. Very popular attraction

A unique 12th-century wooden church originally built in Norway and relocated to Karpacz in the 19th century. Surrounded by the stunning Karkonosze mountains, Wang Church blends Viking architecture with Christian symbolism. A peaceful place for reflection, history, and beautiful views — a must-see when visiting Karpacz.

A must in terms of hike in the Czech Republic, very well signaled and prepared routes on both sides, recommend to do it in warmer season. I did it in winter and it was very tough compared to summer. The village (Pec pod Sněžkou) under the mountain it's the perfect place to stay for 1-2 nights, as the hiking routes basically starts from it

The highest peak in Czech- Bohemia, Sněžka 1603m s/l where it borders Poland. Nice hike from the Polish side of the Silesian Hut ⛰️ 😉👍

We visited on a foggy day, the cablecar was even closed half way to the mountain top due to strong winds, so we hiked there. The path is not very long, some 6km in total. Expect lots of steep stairs and some hard ice, even in the Spring time. Even though, we couldn't see much, view wise, we still enjoyed the short adventure. Make sure to bring warm clothing... It felt like - 10 at the top due to the strong winds. The nearby parking is paid and around 1km away from the cable car station but there is a nice side trail following the water stream.

It was fulfilling reaching the summit gives u spirit to conquer heights without fear

Beautiful views, quite hard climb but suitable for begginners, you can see everywhere around either polish and chech side. From Czech side you can take lift car from Pec pod sniezkou which takes you directly to the top. Small restaurant on the top which is usually crowded so better be prepare having own food and drinks.

This trip was unplanned, so the weather conditions were not in my favor, and it was difficult to enjoy the scenery. However, this trip was a great risky adventure that will remain in my memory for a long time. An incredible place for a winter vacation.

Hey everyone...Is the highest mountain of the Czech Republic (1603 meters 5260 feet) the ascent is possible from the Czech or Polish side....I crossed the Polish side...in the city of Karpaz at the municipal parking lot no. 7... .it's two and a half hours from the parking lot (or you can use the cable car that takes you under the hut and then it's only about an hour's journey) the level of difficulty is easy to medium... in winter, be careful at the top, it can be minus 20 and a strong wind that I experienced firsthand....

Great castle 😍 good state & lot of attractions.

We visited the castle and toured the rooms. Very nice setting. We did not stay at the hotel, but visited for a day. A large part of the front gate and keep was off-limits for visitors, likely due to safety and restoration, but was a disappointment for our young boys who live to explore castles. It was a nice place to explore and relax.

We just visited the castle ,it was amazing.

Grodziec Zamek, or Grodziec Castle, is a stunning historical site located in Poland, renowned for its impressive architecture and rich history. Nestled atop a hill, the castle offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, making it a picturesque destination for visitors. The castle's origins date back to the 9th century, and it has undergone various transformations over the centuries. Its medieval charm is evident in the well-preserved structure, which includes towering stone walls, a grand entrance, and an elegant courtyard. The blend of Gothic and Renaissance architectural styles showcases the evolution of the castle through different periods. One of the highlights of Grodziec Zamek is the opportunity to explore its fascinating interiors. Guided tours provide insights into the history of the castle, including tales of its former inhabitants and significant events that took place within its walls. The exhibits often feature artifacts, furniture, and historical displays that transport visitors back in time. The surrounding grounds are equally enchanting, with lush greenery and pathways that invite leisurely strolls. The castle often hosts cultural events, reenactments, and festivals, adding a lively atmosphere to the historical site and making it a great destination for families. Overall, Grodziec Zamek is a must-visit for history enthusiasts, architecture lovers, and anyone looking to experience the beauty of Polish heritage. Its combination of stunning views, rich history, and engaging activities makes it a memorable destination in the heart of Poland.

I took one star from the service just because they couldn't speak English and the menu was handwriten so I couldn't translate or understand then I decided not to eat there, but the staff is kind even if not speaking English, which was nice. The place had toilets, some tables and chairs to eat/chill and good parking area inside the castle. Everything really clean.

WAY to expensive tickets!!! Half, if not more, of the castle is closed off, you pay 28 PLN to see a few rooms with bunch of random furniture. Take a picture from the outside and save yourself the money! Only up is that there is free parking

This was a lot of fun. I really enjoy the old castles that let you explore every nook and cranny on your own. There’s something a lot more personal to be let alone to explore at whim. A lot of great views from the rooftops and fun camera angles. A must stop if you’re in the area. We drove over and hour to get here and it was totally worth it!

The church is absolutely stunning, and well worth the visit and drive despite it being out of the way from normal tourist stops. To our surprise, when we paid the entrance fee he put English audio on over the speakers that narrated the history of the church. I know it's in several other languages as he did the same for other visitors. It was quiet and peaceful and we explored the nooks and crannies downstairs. The Church of Peace in Jawor was built in the mid-17th century after the Thirty Years’ War, when Protestants were granted the rare right to build a place of worship—but only under strict conditions. The church had to be constructed outside city walls, without a bell tower, and using only perishable materials like wood, straw, and clay. Despite these limitations, it became a stunning example of timber-frame architecture and is a marvel to wonder at today.

Very beautiful Church made out of Timber. It is definitely worth a visit to this beautiful Church. There is an entry fee that is very minimal but they do not provide any guides in English. You have to look at the pictures to see how beautiful this church is inside. When we were there there were people working on the church refinishing portions of the art. I'm glad that they are renovating the portions that need to be done and I want to be able to support this effort.

One of only three lutheran churches allowed to be constructed in Poland during the second half of the 17th century. Of the three, only two remain, those in Lawor and Swidnica. They now belong to the Unesco world heritage. When I visited in July of 2025 I was the only visitor. You pay an entrance fee upon which you have to pay an additional fee if you are taking photographs. The church is constructed using the same materials as in many regular houses of its time, wooden beams, clay and straw. The interior is beautifully decorated in baroque style and can seat up to 6000 people on several rows of balconies. A marvelous experience that you definitely should not miss if you are in the region of any of these two cities.

Fantastic monument! Everything about it it's just breathtaking. Must place to visit in Lower Silesia.

Must visit. Top architecture. No nails used while building. Stunning inside.

A stunning example of 17th-century engineering and religious resilience. Built entirely out of wood, without nails, in just one year – and it still stands strong nearly 400 years later. A must-see for anyone interested in architecture, history, or how to outsmart imperial restrictions. And yes, they accept card payments – bless modernity.

Super cool experience. Very well explained, more interested Always in medieval stories that WW1/2 but has best of both worlds. The building inside and out is stunning.

Zamek Książ is one of the tourist attractions that you must visit if you are nearby. The third largest castle in Poland has an interesting history and the castle tour will delight you. You can spend a whole day here without getting bored.

We walked in the summer, but wanted to see this castle last winter, which might be a bit problem as the path may have been a bit slippery. It's a nice circuit along the river, quite uphill, from St Anne's church, (ruins) through the old castle to the new chateau , which is beautiful and the park maintained, free to enter. The place is photogenic and on the way there you can stop at the viewpoint. However, choose the right part of the day not to have the sun directly to your eyes.

Unbelievable castle! Very huge with an extended park. Tha castle itself is nicely decorated and furnished. You can feel the atmosphere of the past. By official suggestion you need 2.5 hours to go round but we did it shorter because we didn't have too much time. We went on the underground tour as well which is very interesting. It was part of the Rise Project of nazi Germany. A sharp contrast with the peaceful world of the castle!! You have to climb a lot of stairs!! Be careful. But it is worth!

Tickets cost around 60pln for visit a castle. The whole tour takes around 1h. The castle is really good renovated and has a lot to see. Parking cost us 30pln . With the ticket you have also entrance to the garden. I did not have to wait to visit this place

It was an interesting visit, but there were some organizational issues. Ksiaz Castle is definitely worth a visit. The self-guided tour of the interior is interesting and informative. Seeing the original furniture and décor from different historical periods was fascinating and really helped us imagine life in those times. The castle is large, and the tour takes about one to two hours, depending on your pace. You can explore at your own pace, which is a big plus. After finishing the tour of the interior, you can access the gardens, where you can walk around, relax, and even grab a bite to eat at the café. Note that prices are on the expensive side. Unfortunately, I had an unpleasant experience with the security staff. Due to the large number of visitors, it was difficult to stop and take photos, so I wanted to walk back and capture some shots I had missed. However, I was told that going against the flow is not allowed, even though I saw someone else (not a staff member) doing so freely. It felt inconsistent and frustrating. Make sure not to skip the underground section of the tour. It provides fascinating insight into the castle’s role during WWII. It's quite cold underground, so bring a warm layer. Plan to spend about 40 minutes down there. Overall: It's a beautiful, historic place worth visiting, but be prepared for some crowd-related limitations during peak times.

Better to come earlier to prevent huge queue for the tickets. Use terminals to the left from tickets office (same enter as tickets office), they were totally free. Great and clean place inside and outside. P.s. if you want to enjoy coffee after visiting castle - better stay in cafe inside (NOT on terrace), because they have huge queue and bad coffee quality. So buy inside whatever you want (as take away) and enjoy terrace view.

Lovely place to spend a day at, Zoo, Dinosaurs and playground, what else do you need with kids...and it's free! Well done Lubin :)

Super and free zoo in park. Pretty nice place to see animals, have rest, kids can play like on the beach in sand. And the ice cream here same good. Recommend.

Very wonderful park for family vacations. It will be interesting for both children and adults. Very well combined vegetation, paths, aviaries with birds, a separate corner with pets and of course life-size dinosaurs! Although they are plastic, but still make an incredible impression, each figure occupies a separate place among the bushes and trees. It is possible to approach, touch the models and take photos, as well as aviaries with birds, fences create a boundary between visitors and birds, but this does not change the fact that you are practically sheltered from them. Two hours in the park flew unnoticed. Highly recommend for a visit.

very nice place only on weekends there are a lot of people - it is better to come on a weekday.

Very nice and interesting place. Interesting for leisure with children and adults 🦚🦕🦖 Admission is free.

Historic replicas of dinosaurs and other long gone animals the displays have written explanations in both politician English. The displays are also vibrate also vibrate and to size which is entertaining for children.

Nice and educational, but birds have too small cages!

Amazing garden, lot of unique plants and some cute animals. Not for everyone, it's not something special that you can see here, but if you want to chill a little, and you love plants. It is place for you. There is also Caffe here, so enjoy your cup of tea or coffe around nice place.

Beautiful place with amazing plants, sweet lemura and some exotic birds. A really good spot to visit when it's cold or raining. Coffee shop is worth a visit. Really tasty desserts. The only exception was Tiramisu which was not sweet at all.

A fascinating place with history reaching back to the early 20th century, built by Prince Jan Heinrich Hochberg for his wife Daisy of Książ Castle. It has kept its original structure and unique charm to this day. Inside, you walk through long glass corridors filled with palm leaves, citrus trees, and giant cacti. Each greenhouse has a completely different atmosphere – from tropical humidity to desert warmth. Everything feels authentic and alive, more like a living garden than a museum display. Outside, there’s a small park with creative installations, a flower peacock, and a cozy little shop full of plants. We even caught a seasonal Halloween setup — pumpkins, decorations, and autumn colors everywhere. 🎃 You can easily spend around an hour walking through the gardens and greenhouses, just soaking up the calm and atmosphere.

After the recent renovation, the place looks less attractive — it feels more cramped, with less greenery and open space. The overall atmosphere has changed, and unfortunately, the quality of the staff service has also declined, making the visit less pleasant. It's still interesting to see, but I expected a more vibrant and welcoming environment based on its previous state. Overall, it’s an okay place to visit, but there’s room for improvement.

An interesting place not only for botanists but also for family visitors. We managed to visit the Palm House while the dahlias were in bloom. The scent and colors are enchanting. I highly recommend it.

I really enjoyed this place - it's so colourful and full of different species of plants (over 250). It was great getting to know the history of this Palm House. This is a delightful spot for plant lovers!

Such a beautiful place with a lot of beautiful plants, if you are plants lover, you can buy quite a lot of plants for very sensible prices, the lady who sells them is really friendly and will give you a lot of advice. You can park in front of the greenhouses, at weekends it is free of charge.

Great experience, awesome place to visit. That being said, english audio guide can be rented next to the ticket office at the gift shop. They wanted us to pay 50 euros per audio guide as a deposit. I didn't have cash and the lady said that's fine go ahead and insisted we return them at the gift shop. When we returned everything was closed only people were some waiters from the next door restaurant so we left the audio guides with them. Questions - if the audio guides are worth 100 euros wouldn't you want them back ? Was it forgetfulness or trying a scam ?

Well worth visiting if you are interested in a WW2 history. Be mindful that enter is granted in tours only with guide provided no individual entry.

Awesome place to visit. It takes one hour, possible to pay by card. Audio guide is available in several langages (Cz, UA, RO, HU, D, EN...)

Very interesting place! Did both tours. The "special" tour is only in Polish and will take you through the flooded part of the tunnels. Its approximately 200m in the dark but you get a flashlight along. This is the only extra compared to the normal tour The normal tour is with an audio-guide in English, French, German or Czech. Together with the guide you'll walk trough the illuminated tunnels. At every stop he tells something in Polish and as a non Polish person you can listen to the audio-guide. Both tours take app. 50 minutes. The guides speak a bit of English so you can ask them for some extra info. After the tour is finished you can walk up the mountain to see the casino and the ruins. An intense but nice walk.

Great experience, really good tour guide provided a lot of information.

What a disappointing tour - if you are not Polish! If you do not speak Polish, you get an audio guide. The audio guide however is inadequate. They put non- Polish speakers all together in a group with polish speakers who have an actual human guide. Some sections of the audio guide lasts for 2 minutes, say. Then you have to then wait until the human tour guide speaks to the rest of the group for a further 5 minutes or more. Why can't the audio guide be the same content as if you were a Polish speaking tourist? I thought the whole experience was to attract tourists from all over the world to spend their money here and learn about Polish history. Also, the tour guide is loud, so the people listening to headphones (sorry, 'headphone' because they only give you one!) can't actually hear what is being said in their ear. So the audio guide people linger at the back and then get told off (quite rudely) by the guide for being left behind whilst they are still listening. Some sections of the tour were spoken by the tour guide in Polish and were completely missed off the audio guide. It is a shame because this piece of history is very important and interesting to this part of Poland. I came away feeling that because I wasn't a Polish speaker, I was treated like a second class citizen. Either make the audio guide much better or seperate the Polish speakers from the non-speaking tourists.

Nice experience! First impression then you come closer to the cave - is extreme cold. So do not forget warm clothes. The cave itself is impressive, the same as the history behind it. Guides are only in polish language, so do not forget to take audio guide at the ticket office. Deposit for it only in cash.

Really magical place. I stayed there for about an hour to read and hear about the history of this church. The whole area ist very peaceful. Some kind of stillness "reign" at this place. I was inspired to buy a guidebook about "treasures" of lower Silesia

Quite beautiful and special 17 century Lutheran church. It’s the largest Baroque wooden church in Europe. Thank to it’s remote location, the church was intact after WWII. It took us about one hour and half to admire the church, its surrounding and learn about its history. At the ticket counter you can get a document which explains most important details of the church ( history, construction, maintenance, renovation….) don’t miss it.

It is definitely a must see if you are in the town. The church was built only with wood in very little time. All the information about the church history is available on leaflets once you are there. Judging by the exterior - which is also nice - you could not tell how beautiful the interior is.

We always visit this place in Świdnica with tourist groups. It's the largest wooden Baroque church in Europe, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The first mass was celebrated in 1657. Although the church was built as a result of religious wars, it remains a symbol of reconciliation.

One of the best churches i ever visited. Loved the good vibes and art inside. Its a paid entry but was worth it. They also provide english booklet with church history.

The church is in nice surroundings with a cemetery around it but it is not in a perfect condition. The inside of the church is splended but a little too crowded and this way it could not be enjoyed fully.

Fantastic church and all ornate fixtures within were made from wood ..stunning

Large fortress with beautiful views. Loved the reenactment which gives a real glimpse of the lives of people in the past. Drinks and food on site.

Wow. We got fantastic guide Danka. She has amasing knowledge and way to pass it to visitors. She was funny and entertaining. The place itself is well organised. You can feel the ghosts of prussian soldiers around. There's different tickets to choose and portable multimedia devices for different languages.

Surprisingly interesting place. You need to park your car and hike an asphalt road for about 20 minutes. Then I recommend a tour with a guide - a bit steep (if you come with a whole family), but funny and informative. Attractions indoors (the fort itself, a restaurant, playroom, video tours, bathroom) and outdoors (nice view at the mountains, fresh air, goats). The funny part: it was one of the biggest and most costly military investments at the time, built mostly to satisfy the kaiser's ego. It faced just one battle, which happened by mistake (as truce with Napoleon has already been signed).

Although you have to climb to the top of the hill, it was well worth it. Fort is still being renovated but the tour guide was very well informed, able to answer questions and with good sense of humour!

Great historical place with a wonderful excursion led by a professional guide. Worth attending the whole session . Great views from walls

Lovey panoramic views nice tour guide and a good day out. Also nice goats to see. One tip is if you want to feed the goats you need 2zl to buy food

Really nice place which is still growing. Hard climb on the way up but with small game which you may participate. This helps with the climb and provides some competition. You also need to be there when they fire the cannon. It is worth to wait for a guided tour as they also shoot an old weapon. It's all good and well but the single item missing is a good place to eat. Apart from that there is a lot to see a fire range, cannon and much more. Nice views.

Perfect place to heal yourself. All path are clean and organised really well. Lots of flowers make beautiful smell to refresh your body & mental condition. Even you are able to purchase plants or flowers here.

Amazing place! Definitely recommend to visit. Perfect place to relax . All plants and trees have tables with names. Big playground for the children. Additionally you can buy a map for children on which you will be collecting stamps during your walk in the garden. The perfect time for visiting is spring when everything is in bloom.

Great place to spend the day. Its an amazing location for all those who love trees and plants. They have lots of different types of tree and plant. Ticket cost 25 for Normal, 15 for discount. At the end of the Garden there are lots of cherry 🍒 tree. During the season it is possible to pick as much cherry possible and take them home. Highly recommend for family picnic.

Amazing place . We had a lovely afternoon among the rhododendrons, roses and cherry trees. Rich history.

The best garden in Poland. Perfect for picnic, enjoying the nature and gardening at every time of a year. I wholeheartedly recommend visiting!!

Beautiful place for a nice walk, variety of plants, rocks display, grill, playground for kids. A free car park. Just a bit too crowded, and when you walk in - just number of ads, food places etc makes you dizzy. When you just over the first part, rest allow you to enjoy weather and nature

A great place to visit to walk among beautiful flowers. But I am told May is the best time when they are in full bloom. You could easily spend half a day here. Bring some food if you want to cook over a barbecue. You can buy food but the queues are long. There's a fun game for children to collect stamps dotted around the place. But this is a place to relax and enjoy the sun. But that's where it's appeal ends, as not sure what you can do in any other type of weather.

A lovely memorial to the slaughtered animals of Wroclaw on butchers alley. Very nice statues and lovely little street that had some art and some shops for gifts if you would like some artsy gifts to take home.

Interesting place to go in Wroclaw. The memorial to Slaughtered Animals in Wrocław. In the Middle Ages, this place was a terrible place for animals💀, but a pretty good place to buy meat 🍖. Now you can find some nice little shops...

Monument to our edible friends. I heard they put candles here on All Saints Day, I would have liked to see that.

Despite the handcraft shops that there are to be discovered and one of the pubs with popular «pub quizs», you will undoubtely notice the animal sculptures. They were placed there as an hommage to them, but not because they were heroes or something like this... In an earlier time when the Rynek and the Colth hall were used as a market place, not every produce could be traded there, but those supposed clean. It meant that meat had to be selled and bought a bit farther. Thus little street not far was the chisen place. In fact just in front of the animals you will still find the wood doors on the floor were merchants kept the meat (and themselves) underground to offer it to the people passing by without spreading their smell.

Very cute sculpture

Nice side street with animal art and art based shops.

Nice pace, for children and adults. Must shoot some pics there :)

The building itself is amazing, but I won't recommend anyone to visit inside (especially if you are a tourist). Let me tell you why: 1. Lack of English description 2. Staff are careless; they can't even speak simple English and are too loud 3. The interiors are boring and too plain. Please save your money and only take photos from outside with the building 🥰

Circa 30 min visit is about rifht. Nice building with historical significance for the city. Beautiful sealing and with few panels to read about the history itself.

The facade of the building is quite beautiful and worth to see. But, the contents of this museum had a lack of storytelling. Simply, the historical objects are placed with info board. I hope they will improve for the future.

I didn’t actually go inside the museum as I didn’t have the desire - but the exterior is absolutely stunning. Built in the gothic style and was built in the 13th century. Much of it survived the war so you can enjoy its natural beauty. Make sure to appreciate all the fine details 🥰

beautiful town hall which is now a museum. the astronomical clock at the east facade represent the Solar System with the "geocentric model" which is in accordance with the ancient experienced world and philosophical views of a pre-Copernician era.

My main interest in visiting this place was to see the inside of the town hall, which was very interesting to see complete with English language explanation of the evolution anf ornimentation of the building. The small exhibitions (kerosene lamps, German silesian porcelein, etc) were a bonus really, but still enjoyable.

The building is very attractive from the outside, but the exhibition inside is fairly small. Personally, aside from a few items that were beautiful and interesting, most of what I saw didn’t impress me. The museum has no interactive features, and in several areas, there is a lack of English descriptions.

It was Amazing! If you are in Wroclaw it's a must see. My husband loved it. The panoramic painting is huge and it's designed this way for you to imagine to be in the middle of the battle. The session is 30 minutes long and the narrative is in Polish however if you need a translation please ask once you are inside. It's a beautiful beautiful piece of art. You won't regret it. It's about Polish uprising and Kosciuszko.

I have to admit my boyfriend suggested this as a destination to go and see and I kind of thought no at the time but after going I genuinely think it was fantastic. It’s very cheap which is a bonus obviously. But you go In we bought a ticket before and you go up as a group you see the paining and they have translator devices so we chose English which if you have earphones is great and if you don’t you have to just hold the thing up to your ear. You hear all about the painting and they talk you through different sections as you walk around. It is genuinely impressive how they integrate the 360 art work with some scenery and props and lighting they’ve added to give you the immersed experience. All in all only took about 30 mins from getting there to leaving if that but it was fantastic and well worth a visit. As an aside, going during school hours will probably mean it’s full of class trips, so plan the journey that suits you. Although they sat at the side and didn’t get in the way on our trip.

A great and worthy visit in Wrocław, the painting was amazing and very impressive to see. The only thing I’d suggest with the audio guide is that it has headphones, as it was very difficult to listen to the audio guide without headphones. The entry ticket also gives you entry to 3 other museums, and I suggest you book in advance as when we first went the showing was sold out until a few hours later.

Interesting experience-a unique panoramic painting, combined with props, makes for an impressive visualization of a battle. It is worth spending the time. The tour is guided in multiple languages. Remember to book at least 2 hours ahead of time.

The Racławice Panorama is a monumental work commemorating the Battle of Racławice in 1794. A team of painters led by Jan Stka and Wojciech Kossak exhibited it in Lviv in 1894, on the centenary of the battle. The exhibition took place in a rotunda built especially for this purpose. During the tour, you'll first see a small panorama with a brief historical overview. Then, you'll enter the center of the redoubt, where you'll walk around and admire this work. I highly recommend it :)

While in Wroclaw, I recommend visiting the Racławice Panorama, which is displayed in a huge rotunda in the city center. The painting covers 1,800 square meters and depicts the Battle of Racławice in 1794. In front of the rotunda entrance is the so-called Small Racławice Panorama. This multimedia presentation presents the origins of the painting and the group of artists led by Wojciech Kossak and Jan Styka. A wonderful exhibition!

Very unique experience. To me, that was the most interesting piece of art I have experiences. I enjoyed the fascinating history and stories behind the art. One thing that would make it even better would be if they could provide headphones for the translation device so you don't have to hold it to your ear the whole time
