Olawawa is a city in Lower Silesia province, in the Wroclaw agglomeration. The town, located on the Oława (known as the Oławka) and Odra rivers, and currently inhabited by about 33,000 people, traces its history back to the 12th century and the Middle Ages.
.The most important attraction in the city is the Piast Castle in Olawa, also known as Luisa's Palace. It was erected on the site of Prince Louis I's former Gothic hunting lodge from the late 14th century and has been rebuilt many times over the years. Olawa's town hall dates from the first half of the 19th century. On its Baroque tower, a remnant from the previous town hall, is a 17th-century figural-astronomical clock with moving figures. Inside is the worthwhile Museum Chamber of Olawa Land, a small regional museum that collects antiquities, coins and postcards from Olawa and the surrounding area, as well as a collection of militaria or exhibitions of sculptures and ceramics by local artists. Several beautiful Baroque townhouses can also be seen in the area.
.It is worth taking a walk in the city park located in the southern part of Olawa along the Olawka River. Also nearby is an old Jewish cemetery with dozens of preserved matzevot. Also awaiting visitors to the city is the Sanctuary of the Blessed Virgin Mary Mother of Consolation, the oldest church in Olawa with the remains of a Gothic chancel from around 1300 and several valuable monuments of sacred art.
.The city lies 27 kilometers southeast of Wroclaw. Oława is crossed by national road 94 and provincial roads: 396 and 455. The city has a railroad station and an Oława PKS station. The railroad connection between Wroclaw and Olawa was established as early as 1842 and is the oldest in Poland. Trains to Olawa stop at the railroad station on Szopena Street, adjacent to the city park. The Oława PKS bus station is located at 3 Maja Street and serves both intercity and international connections.

.Rosenheim is a charming Bavarian town with a population of 60,000. Its history dates back to 1232, but there was already a Roman settlement in the area more than a thousand years earlier. Rosenheim is famous as a commercial center, but it is also a great base for nearby attractions, nearby Lake Chiemsee and the mountains. Slightly farther northwest is Munich, and not far to the south is the border with Austria.
In the city itself, most attractions can be reached on foot. A visit to Rosenheim should start with the old town with its market square, the parish church of St. Nicholas located there and the only surviving Mittertor city gate. It houses a museum dedicated to the history of this Bavarian city. A beautiful spot on the city map is the Rieder flower garden, which specializes in herbs and other medicinal plants. On the other hand, for those thirsty for knowledge, an interesting place to visit will be Lokschuppen. Under this name is an exhibition center located in a former locomotive depot, organizing periodic multimedia exhibitions and educational shows for children.
Rosenheim is an important transportation hub. It is located about halfway between Munich and Salzburg. Here, highways and railroads branch off into Austria and on to the Brenner Pass. Our coaches stop at the train station right in the center of town. If you are planning a trip to Rosenheim, the bus will be a convenient, affordable option for getting there.
