In 1593, Jan Zamoyski purchased the Szczebrzeszyn estate. There, near the village of Rudka, in the valley of the Wieprz River and the Świerszcz Stream, in an area covered with forests, he decided to realize the Renaissance idea of a "villa." He built a wooden, larch palace where he hosted distinguished guests and relaxed with his family. Early on, Jan Zamoyski also brought to the area gentle animals such as red deer, roe deer, fallow deer, and wild horses, also known as tarpans. These animals gave rise to Zwierzyńczyk and later Zwierzyniec. The summer palace was demolished due to its age in the mid-19th century and stood in the center of Zwierzyniec between two brick outbuildings – where the Woodworking School is currently located. Opposite their summer residence, Tomasz Antoni Zamoyski and his wife, Teresa Michowska, built a palace-style church in thanksgiving to God for the birth of their long-awaited son, Klemens. The Church of St. John of Nepomuk remains a major tourist attraction in Roztocze National Park.

The Church of St. John of Nepomuk in Zwierzyniec is a charming Baroque church built on an island in 1741–1747 as a family chapel for the Zamoyski family. The characteristic bridge leading to the church and the picturesque location make this place a unique point on the map of Roztocze. The interior is decorated with polychrome by Łukasz Smuglewicz and paintings in the side chapels, including a painting of the coronation of the Virgin Mary attributed to him. The building is easily accessible by bike – it is worth stopping for a moment and looking inside.

The Church of the Dormition of the Most Holy Mother of God in Szczebrzeszyn is a unique religious monument – the oldest building belonging to the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church. The temple has a turbulent history: from a Catholic church, through a Calvinist congregation, a Uniate church, to an Orthodox church. After years of abandonment, it was restored, and during the works, 17th-century wall paintings were uncovered and the iconostasis was recreated. The church on Sądowa Street is worth visiting, especially if you are interested in the history of religious denominations and architecture.
