Set out to discover the magic of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Church of Peace in gorgeous Swidnica. Enjoy a full-day trip from Wrocław accompanied by a knowledgeable local guide.
The scenic route will take you from Wrocław to the city of Sobotka, in the foothills of Mount Sleza. This is definitely one of the more unique and mysterious places in Poland. The ridge emerges from the monotonous Silesian lowlands to a height of 718 meters, which makes it a dominant part of the landscape for the whole province. You will have a break in a mountain cottage where you will hear the fascinating history of different heathen tribes that have lived in the area since the Bronze Age. You will continue to the village of Krzyzowa (formerly Kreisau), which is today a seat of the important Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe.
Once there, you will get to know about the Polish-German Reconciliation Mass, which was celebrated on the 12th of November 1989 and was attended by the heads of Polish and German governments. Afterward, you will travel to Swidnica to admire the enchanting city with its impressive cathedral and picturesque market square, having some free time for lunch or individual exploration. Finally, you will visit the marvelous Church of Peace, the largest wooden church in Europe.
