OLESNICA

Oleśnica is a small town of about 35,000 people in Lower Silesia, located near Wroclaw. The Oleśnica River flows through it. Attractions and monuments worth seeing here include, first of all, the Olesnica Princes' Castle, dating back to the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries. Although most of its former furnishings were looted during and after World War II, the body of the building itself, the cloisters in the courtyard or other decorations have not suffered too much and today remind us of the former splendor of this object. The castle is connected with the nearby Basilica of St. John the Apostle, also known as the castle church, by a 14th-century gallery. In the richly decorated interiors of the church, in addition to the magnificent altar, pulpit or organ, one can visit the chain library and the mausoleum of the Princes of Württemberg.

The Olesnica area is also home to the historic 16th-century Dormition of the Holy Mother of God Orthodox Church and the Old Synagogue building, which is now a Pentecostal Church congregation. It is one of the oldest surviving buildings in Poland that once served as a synagogue - it was built at the end of the 14th century. Olesnica's medieval town gate and defensive walls are also a major attraction. The city has an impressive ATOL recreational complex, which includes an aquapark, climbing wall, tennis, squash and miniature golf courts, among others.
