The first wooden chapel was built in this place in 1668 from the foundation of Marcin Zamoyski, the Lviv Sub-Stole, later the Grand Treasurer of the Crown. From 1688 to 1886 under the administration of the Franciscans. In 1720, it was re-endowed by Tomasz Józef Zamoyski, the starost of Grodecki and Płoskirów, probably with the simultaneous construction of a new church or the expansion of the original chapel. It was burned down by the Swedes in the 18th century. The current church was built in 1768 from the foundation of Jan Jakub Zamoyski, later the voivode of Podolia. In 1778, it was consecrated by Bishop Melchior Jan Kochnowski. Extended on the northern side in the years: 1897-8. Thoroughly renovated before 1930, and in 1975 the roof was renovated.

The Zwierzyniec Brewery is a historic brewery from the early 19th century located in Zwierzyniec. The owner of the plant is the State Treasury, and the lessee – Perła – Browary Lubelskie. The brewery in Zwierzyniec was founded as part of the Zamoyski Family Fee Tariff by Stanisław Kostka Zamoyski at the beginning of the 19th century. The first buildings, which included a single-storey brewing plant, cellars, warehouses, a cooperage and a coach house, were built in 1805–1806 on the site of the former Zamoyski residence. The masonry work was supervised by master Grzegorz Szostakiewicz, and the Scottish brewer John McDonald was responsible for starting beer production. In 1806–1810, English porter-type beer was brewed there. In 1810, the brewery burned down. However, it was quickly rebuilt from the destruction. In 1834–1836, it was expanded and modernized. At that time, it was equipped with a steam engine, and a mill for grinding malt was set up in the new wing. From the 1840s, the plant was leased by the Zamość Estate. In the years 1866–1878, it suspended operations. Most of its equipment was sold. In 1878, after another expansion and the purchase of new equipment, it was reopened.

The Biłgoraj Forests are a vast forest complex stretching across Roztocze and the Sandomierz Basin, constituting one of the largest concentrations of pine forests in Poland. They are an ideal place for nature lovers, offering numerous hiking and cycling trails that lead through picturesque areas full of swamps, peat bogs and forest clearings. It is also an important nature conservation area, where you can encounter rare species of animals, including wolves, moose and black storks. Nature reserves, such as "Obary" with its unique peat bogs, are particularly worth visiting. Cyclists should prepare for sandy roads, which can be demanding in some places.
