The Opaliński Palace in Radlin was one of the most impressive residences in 16th-century Greater Poland and the first palace and garden complex in the region with such a modern layout. It consisted of a quadrangular building with a cloistered courtyard, a gate tower and an Italian garden with a chapel – today serving as a cemetery. After centuries of neglect and changes of owners, the palace was demolished in the 19th century by Władysław Radoliński, who used its bricks to build a residence in Jarocin. Today, only fragments of its former glory have survived in Radlin, but for cyclists interested in history, it is an interesting point on the map of Greater Poland – it is worth stopping here for a while.
