The construction of the palace began in 1734. It was built in stages until the end of the 18th century. Around 1900, it was renovated and rebuilt. After the war, it was taken over by the State Agricultural Farm. There were apartments there. In the late 1980s, the palace was abandoned and fell into ruin. Today, it is tightly overgrown with trees and bushes. There is no way to even approach it or see it. Maybe in winter, when there are no leaves, there is a better chance. Next to the palace are the remains of the farm that belonged to it. The former administrator's house is still inhabited.

The church was built in 1368. In the 18th century, a sacristy was added to it, but the body of the church was not changed and presents the original, early Gothic style.

The palace in Rząśnik, located in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship, is the ruin of a former Baroque residence from 1734, designed by Martin Frantz. The building was once one of the most impressive residences in the Kaczawskie Mountains, but is currently in an advanced state of ruin, with only the perimeter walls and fragments of internal walls preserved. The landscape park surrounding the palace, once with pavilions and a pond, has also been destroyed.

Lwóweckie Skały is a picturesque group of rock formations located on the outskirts of Lwówek Śląski, in the Kaczawskie Mountains. It is made up of unique sandstone monadnocks, which have been shaped by erosion over the centuries, giving them fanciful shapes. The most famous of them are Szwajcaria Lwówek and the rocks in the area of Pałka and Wzgórza Skałka. This place is perfect for a short hike, as well as a bike route, especially for people who like light off-road challenges. It is worth taking solid shoes, because the paths can be rocky, and from some of the rocks there are beautiful views of the Bóbr Valley and the surroundings of Lwówek Śląski.

A magical place with an incredible history: these ruins are considered the oldest secular building in the whole of Silesia. Construction began here in the 12th century with many reconstructions over the centuries. The castle was destroyed in 1646 during the Thirty Years' War. Today, these are magnificent ruins and a brilliant panorama of the area from above.

The Zakręt Śmierci (in German: Death Curve) describes a noticeable bend on the Wojewodzka 358 road, which connects Szklarska Poręba (3 km south) and Świeradów-Zdrój (10 km west). Like the section through the Habel Schwertter Mountains, this section of the road also belongs to the so-called Sudetenstrasse. Once completed, this connection, planned in the 1930s based on the model of the German Alpine Road, was intended to connect the Zittau region - via the low mountain ranges to the east - with Opava (Troppau) in the east of the Czech Republic. The main aim of this was to improve the accessibility of tourist locations for travelers from large cities such as Dresden and Berlin. The approximately 15 km long section mentioned here was built between 1935 and 1937.
