The Castle in Oświęcim is a medieval defensive stronghold located on a hill on the right bank of the Soła River. Currently, the site is home to the Museum of the Castle in Oświęcim, which presents the rich history of the city, the former Duchy of Oświęcim, and valuable historical and archaeological collections. It was here that a great diplomatic turning point occurred: in 1454, the last Piast duke of this region, Jan IV, bowed to the might of Poland and ceded the castle and his entire duchy as a fief to King Casimir Jagiellon. Three years later (in 1457), he completely sold these lands to him. The castle ceased to be a Silesian borderland and became Polish royal property for centuries. It is worth taking a look at the mighty, 13th-century Gothic tower, which remembers those events and that agreement! The history of the castle in Oświęcim dates back to the 11th century, when there was an early medieval agricultural settlement on the hill above the Soła. After it burned down, a fortified castellany stronghold was erected here. The first official documentary mention of it dates from 1179. It was then that King Casimir the Just transferred these lands to the Duke of Opole, Mieszko Plątonogi. Early Gothic tower – dates from the end of the 13th century, it is a defensive building type (bergfried) and is one of the oldest preserved brick structures in Lesser Poland. Royal history – the castle hosted prominent historical figures, including the future Queen of Poland, Bona Sforza. Underground tunnels – there are two corridors under the castle, including an air-raid shelter built by the Germans during World War II. Address: ul. Zamkowa 1, 32-600 Oświęcim Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (the museum is closed on Mondays).

Most Bronisław - that's its name. When driving towards Oświęcim from Wola or Jedlina, it's the only option for cyclists. The new Oświęcim bypass is not adapted for cyclists and pedestrians.

The volunteer firefighters of Świerczyniec celebrated their 160th anniversary on July 9, 2017. The first mention of the local fire department was in 1857. The Pszczyna archives contain a note about an inspection of firefighting equipment in the Świerczyniec commune. At that time, a hand-held fire engine was located at Jedlina Manor. Nine years later, the Duke of Pszczyna built and equipped a fire station in Świerczyniec. The hand-held fire engine, with its horse-drawn carriage, served the firefighters until 1957. One of the first commanders was Augustyn Kłyk. Records from those early years are scarce. Word of mouth records indicate that Świerczyniec firefighters extinguished two major fires: one at the church in Bojszów and one at the buildings in Cielmice.

A local paved road runs along the Vistula River along Wałowa Street. A good alternative to exiting the heavily trafficked sections of Skromna and Wolska roads.
