This palace residence was built between 1621 and 1644 and was the largest palace in Europe at the time. (Versailles was built later.) This palace was built in the Italian style of a fortezza-type palazzo, meaning it was protected by a mighty pentagonal bulwark. This palace type is common in Poland, but here in Krzyżtopór, the bastion fortifications were not dismantled and leveled because this castle was destroyed by Russian troops in 1770. 90% of the walls and 10% of the vaults are still preserved. Therefore, reconstruction plans have existed for over 100 years, which have been repeatedly amended but never realized. Between 2010 and 2013, extensive security measures and new roofs were installed with co-financing from the European Union, and the entire area, including parking spaces, was upgraded for tourism. This project was obviously successful because there were thousands of visitors on the Sunday I was there.

One of the oldest churches in Busko-Zdrój. A wooden structure on a foundation, built in 1699. There are also many historic tombstones in the cemetery. You can only visit at certain times. The interiors are stunning: you don't have to be religious to appreciate the power of history.
