St. Giles' Wooden Church (Church of St. Giles), Zrębice

Highlight • Religious Site

Unfortunately this famous church, which is dedicated to St. Egidius, was closed. I couldn't find any information about the opening times either.
The Zrębice parish was mentioned as early as 1334. The current church stands on the site of the previous church and was built in 1789. However, the painting of St. Egidius dates from 1652. It comes from a nearby chapel.
The free-standing bell tower has bells dated 1632. These probably come from the previous church.
The interior is baroque.
The roof is covered with larch shingles.
The beam structure is provided with fox ornaments. The beams are boarded.

Marshal Józef Piłsudski Square

Highlight • Settlement

Such a beautiful market square, adorned with flowers, deserves to be called a highlight.
Olsztyn's market square is located very close to the castle ruins, which dominate the town's skyline. In this market square, you can see how much the municipality cares about tourists. An ice cream parlor and a café invite you to linger. There are even deck chairs available for everyone to use. Art and lavish floral arrangements complete the beautiful impression.

Olsztyn Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The castle in Olsztyn near Częstochowa is one of the most characteristic landmarks on the Trail of the Eagles' Nests. The ruins of a medieval fortress rise on a limestone hill, from where there is a wide panorama of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland. The castle once played an important defensive role on the borders of the Kingdom of Poland, and today it attracts history and photography enthusiasts. It is worth taking shoes with good soles - the ascent to the hill is short, but steep and rocky. It is best to leave your bike at the entrance or in the city.
