The local experience
Książ Castle occupies a rise surrounded by woodland within the territory of Wałbrzych. The complex brings together wings and façades from different periods, with a layout that needs to be seen from the outside to understand the relationship between the residence and the terrain.
Stara Kopalnia occupies the facilities of a former coal mine in Wałbrzych. Towers, technical buildings and exhibition spaces allow visitors to observe the scale of the industrial activity and the transformation of a workplace into a cultural and interpretation center.
Karkonosze National Park protects mountains on the southern border of Lower Silesia. The Karpacz sector allows planning hikes and approaches toward the Śnieżka area, presenting a landscape of ridges, slopes and forest different from the urban complexes of Wałbrzych.
