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.

Several tourist shelters with benches, an ideal place to rest, right next to the parking lot and the entrance to the Sokole Góry reserve.

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.

Ruins of Olsztyn Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle ruins in Olsztyn are a picturesque place with a rich history, perfect for a short bike trip. The castle, which is part of the Trail of the Eagles' Nests, remembers the times of Casimir the Great and stormy sieges. Today, you can admire the remains of the walls, the cylindrical and square towers, as well as the foundations of old buildings. The area around the castle offers interesting bike routes in the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland, and an additional attraction are archaeological discoveries, including Neanderthal finds in a cave in the lower castle.
