As topic says, Oleśnica is defined as city of towers and roses (if I must be honest, I do not know why it is called city of roses but I have no doubts why it is called city of towers - there are many of them in whole Oleśnica). It is town with very rich history. It is one of the oldest and most interesting cities in Lower Silesia. First informations are from XIII century. Its attractiveness is the location, beautiful panorama of tall towers, accented with historic buildings and rich history of representing a combination of three traditions: Polish, Czech and German. After centuries of turbulent history, Oleśnica is back in the borders of the Polish state. Its present appearance and shape is the result of a half-century of reconstruction and development, and creative effort of its people.
Of course one of the most beautiful places is market - along with the town hall and surrounding houses, is still the center of the city. It is very well maintained and clean. There are many pubs and restaurants where you can spent your free time with friends or family.
Oleśnica is full of monuments and relic elements. There is duke's castle - renaissance, the largest and most valuable monument in Oleśnica (picture below).
There are also plenty of churches which are also great monuments but all these relic elements aren't the most thing for me. I have been in Oleśnica couple of times and I must say that I really liked this place. It's perfectly cultivated, clean and intriguing. Atmosphere is fantastic, I can also say that people are great. When it comes to buildings, I am seriously amazed by the complex of Wrocław gate and walls. When you cross one of the gates, you enter semi-hidden housing and that's amazing for me because it is perfectly ripped. All that things together makes Olśnica very attractive place for the weekend. I really enjoy spending time there!
