An interesting place. Unfortunately, the church is closed. I not the exact location of the marker.

Here, probably everyone can expect different opinions on various topics. A tiny, charming church. Personally, I love these. I would like to add that I was with my child on the rosary and I recommend it! They do not persuade, they do not press and they get along very well with children.

Late Romance Church of Saint Giles is the oldest fully preserved building in Wrocław. It is located on the north-eastern side of the Cathedral of John the Baptist.

Beautiful, small, brick Romanesque temple, in the immediate vicinity of the cathedral. It makes it easy to overlook and worth seeing. An interesting but simple portal. A nice frieze of intertwining arcades.

You usually walk past her. The Egidius Church is inconspicuously located in the shadow of the Wroclaw Cathedral. It is the oldest preserved building in the city. The Roman Catholic church dates from the first half of the 13th century and is dedicated to St. Aegidius.

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.
