CASSINO

The town of Cassino is located halfway between Rome and Naples. For centuries it has been a kind of gateway to the Italian capital. The hill of Monte Cassino rises to a height of 519 meters above sea level. It was here that the bloodiest and fiercest battle of World War II was fought from January to May 1944. At the site of the monastery passed the Gustav Line, the crossing of which opened the way to Rome for the Allies and moved the front, which had been stalled for long months.

When visiting Monte Cassino, it is worth starting with the Benedictine monastery, who established their abbey here as early as the 6th century. During the memorable battles of 1944, the hilltop monastery was virtually completely destroyed. Fortunately, it was possible to salvage much of the historical furnishings from the basilica and valuable works of art and manuscripts. Today they can be admired in the local museum. The Cathedral Basilica of Monte Cassino itself has been painstakingly rebuilt, preserving its pre-war appearance. An attraction that few people know about is the vast Natural Park surrounding the hill. Its area is nearly 700 hectares. In addition to the famous Polish War Cemetery, other important Polish monuments can be found on its grounds - to the "Skorpion" Armored Regiment and the 3rd Carpathian Rifle Division, as well as several scenic walking trails.

In the town of Cassino itself, you can also spot a few Polish accents - among the most important and most visited are a small museum dedicated to Wladyslaw Anders and a monument to Wojtek the Bear.

OSTROLEKA

Wondering what non-obvious travel destination to choose? Where you haven't been before, and perhaps worth going? Between Warsaw and Bialystok lies a small town of great historical significance.

At that time it was a significant point on the trade route between Warsaw and Vilnius.

Why is it worth coming to Ostroleka?

What's more, there is Zagroda Kurpiowska in Kadzidlo, which is a kind of open-air museum full of cottages and farm buildings from the 19th century, for example.

Ostrołęka also has a well-preserved old town, the street layout is identical to that of the fourteenth century, however, it should be pointed out that due to its turbulent history and, among other things, the destruction suffered, for example, during the First World War, the building of the town hall located right on the market square is no longer what it was in the nineteenth century.
