Kęty - attractions

The town has a long history, which is best seen by going to the late 14th century market square, which has undergone renovations in recent years. It is surrounded by 19th- and 20th-century townhouses, and the centerpiece is a statue depicting the town's former resident and patron saint, St. John Cantius. One of the townhouses houses the town museum, which collects old objects of daily use of the residents and other memorabilia related to Kety. While in town, it is also worth visiting the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Consolation, or the Baroque church of Saints Margaret and Catherine, as well as the small church of Saint John Kante, located next door. Kety was home to a small Jewish community as recently as 100 years ago, as evidenced by a cemetery with some 60 preserved matzevot and the remains of a former synagogue.

In addition to historical monuments, the city also offers interesting attractions. Kęty and the area around the Soła River is a great place for active recreation. In the Linden Park, created in 2014, one can combine walking or sports with learning about dendrology or beekeeping.
