A forested peak, but there is a bench and a fire pit, but watch out for "flying ticks", as deer shearers are sometimes called. They are not really ticks, but they feed on blood, so if there are a lot of them, I recommend running away.

But before you run away, take note of the beautiful rocky terrain here at the top.

Such a must have. It's beautiful downstairs, but the views here are great. Entrance to the tower through the main gate of the monastery and to the right. Last entry at 4:40 p.m., open until 5 p.m. There is a small fee.

East Gate of the Holy Cross Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

In the wall surrounding the monastery on the Holy Cross, on the eastern side, there is a decorative late-baroque gate from the 17th century, made of brick, with rectangular rectangular facades, with a passage vaulted with a cradle cradle. The gate was completely renovated in 1963. It was covered with a copper plate in 1976.

The monastery is open daily from 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. (in the summer season until 8.00 p.m.).
There is a possibility of guided tours of the monastery upon prior telephone reservation.

Czartoryski Mound

Highlight • Monument

The history of the Czartoryski Mound is that after the fall of the November Uprising in 1831, Prince Adam Czartoryski visited the Holy Cross here on his way to exile; he also gave a political speech. His officers carved in the ground with sabres: From this height we raise our prayers to God for our perishing Fatherland.

The Mound is in memory of these events.
