The best MTB trails around gmina Gorzyce

Beautiful historic architecture, the entire market square paved with stone.

An interesting design for a yaw ferry: it doesn't "hang" from buoys like the ferries in Magdeburg or Coswig, but instead runs on two steel cables with pulleys on a steel cable stretched across the Vistula. Everything else is done by the rudder adjustment on the ferry and, of course, the current of the Vistula. The ferry glides along silently...

The price for the crossing is 5 PLN. You don't have to wait long

The Sandomierz Vineyard is one of the most famous places in the region, combining the tradition of grape growing with a modern approach to winemaking. Situated on picturesque hills near Sandomierz, it offers not only tastings of local wines, but also the opportunity to visit the vineyard and learn about the production process. The climate and loess soils are conducive to growing varieties such as Solaris, Regent or Johanniter, which give the wines a unique character. It is an ideal place for a relaxing bike trip, and visitors can taste wines accompanied by regional snacks. Various events are organized here during the season, including workshops and meetings with winemakers.

The Royal Castle in Sandomierz is one of the most important historical buildings in the city, located on a slope above the Vistula River. It was built in the 14th century on the initiative of Casimir the Great and for centuries served as a royal residence and the seat of starosts. In the 17th century it was partially destroyed by the Swedes and later transformed into a prison, which operated until the 1950s. Currently, it houses the District Museum, where you can see exhibitions on the history of Sandomierz, art and archaeology. From the castle hill there is a beautiful view of the Vistula and the city, which makes this place an attractive point on the tourist route.

Opatowska Gate – a Gothic entrance gate from the 2nd half of the 14th century in Sandomierz. Built by Casimir the Great as part of the city's defensive walls. In the 16th century, it was topped with a Renaissance attic funded by Sandomierz physician Stanisław Bartolon[2]. During the January Uprising, on February 8, 1863, the dramatic epilogue of the Battle of Słupcza took place here. The defeated insurgents, escaping from the battlefield, tried to resist on the barricade erected in the Opatowska Gate. However, it was captured during the first attack by the pursuing Cossacks. It is the only preserved gate out of four that once led to Sandomierz. Apart from Opatowska, the city was also accessed by the Zawichojska, Lublin and Krakowska gates, as well as two wickets, of which one has survived – the Dominican, called the Eye of the Needle.
