A beautiful church, rebuilt in the 1990s, worth seeing

The quite nice collegiate church was built in the 12th century. The advantage is that it is heated

A beautiful building. You notice it even from the highway, just passing by.

The Roman Catholic Church is one of the few attractions of Wolin, one of the oldest Polish cities.

A gothic church, rebuilt after the war damages relatively not long ago, in the '90s of the twentieth century. It is worth seeing because this place is connected with the history of the Christianization of these lands. Nice stained glass windows in the windows, unfortunately the decor is already contemporary. There is no main altar, characteristic of this type of building. You can enter the galleries.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
