Route: Osieczna - Rydzyna
Distance: c. 23 km
The trip starts in Osieczna in a Franciscan monastery. The town"s most noticeable showpiece is constituted by the three windmills standing by the road. They can be inspected from the inside. The entry to the windmills has to be arranged at the Youth Hostel in Osieczna.
On the opposite side of the street there are gravestones from the evangelical graveyard which used to be located in this place at the turn of the 19th and 20th century. It is also worthwhile to take a walk through the streets of this very charming town and visit the Holy Trinity"s Church and the castle currently occupied by the Rehabilitation and Treatment Hospital for Children and Youth. Finally, we suggest you have a one more look at Osieczna from the Jagoda observation tower.
Next, we go to Rydzyna, where to start with we continue the windmill theme by visiting the Agriculture and Milling Museum arranged in a historic windmill. Then, we go to the town"s centre, where we will focus on exploring its unique baroque layout and the castle with a park.
