A bridge over a branch of the Świślina River. In the background are the historic ruins of the rolling mill in Nietulisko.

An interesting site, once an integral part of a rolling mill that closed in the early 20th century. Before the flood of 1903, the Świślina River flowed here, which changed its course.

This palace residence was built between 1621 and 1644 and was the largest palace in Europe at the time. (Versailles was built later.) This palace was built in the Italian style of a fortezza-type palazzo, meaning it was protected by a mighty pentagonal bulwark. This palace type is common in Poland, but here in Krzyżtopór, the bastion fortifications were not dismantled and leveled because this castle was destroyed by Russian troops in 1770. 90% of the walls and 10% of the vaults are still preserved. Therefore, reconstruction plans have existed for over 100 years, which have been repeatedly amended but never realized. Between 2010 and 2013, extensive security measures and new roofs were installed with co-financing from the European Union, and the entire area, including parking spaces, was upgraded for tourism. This project was obviously successful because there were thousands of visitors on the Sunday I was there.
