Lovely place. There are not many of them in the Opole region anymore. I recommend it as an outdoor activity.

Proślice is an inconspicuous village. I would not expect such gems here. And yet, the historic wooden granary and all fours make an amazing impression. You have to hurry because the buildings are in a more and more disastrous condition. They can end their lives at any time. It's a pity that no one looks after it. In addition to the granary, several other brick buildings belonging to the former farm. Today there is an agricultural cooperative here.
