OPATÓW

The origins of the city remain an unexplained mystery to this day, in Opatow you can still admire the medieval gate and churches testifying to the importance of the city in the past centuries. Merchant routes from Silesia and Cracow to Greater Poland, Pomerania and Ruthenia Halicka crossed in Opatow. The fortification with walls limited the possibility of adding new buildings. The already existing cellars were not enough for the developing merchants' warehouses and craft workshops, so they built multi-storey chambers and tunnels. Today we can rediscover the rich history of the city by traversing the underground corridors and listening to the interesting stories of an enthusiastic guide. We will have lunch at a local restaurant serving regional dishes. The famous Opatow fudges will be served for dessert.

SZYDŁÓW

Next stop is Szydłow known as the Polish Carcassonne. We will listen carefully to the story told by the guide in a beautifully restored synagogue. We will see one of the oldest Polish penitential churches. We will learn the rules of building a medieval castle. Interestingly, King Wladyslaw Jagiello visited Szydlow 17 times, ruling from here. Remember, however, that there is only one Queen in Szydlow -it is the plum of Szydlow ! Plums in chocolate, plums in fudge, in jam, liqueur, tincture ... in the town hall building, in the beautiful plum kingdom, we will have delicious, sweet workshops with plums in the lead role.

KRZYŻTOPÓR

On the way to the vineyard, we will stop at the imposing ruins of Krzyżtopór. The castle itself in its heyday, larger than Versailles, is a combination of mysticism and defensive functions, it delighted only 12 years. The guide will tell you about the details of the building, as well as its turbulent history.

VINEYARD

We will stop in one of the best vineyards of the Sandomierz route, where we indulge in the pleasures of tasting. The owner will tell you (colorfully) about the local grape varieties and then invite you to a tasting. In the scenery of grapevines we will try local cheese, preserves, cold meats, everything freshly made on nearby farms.We will start our journey back to either Warsaw/ Cracow or Lublin late hours of the evening.
