Magnificent example of an early baroque aristocratic residence was refurbished in the late 18th century to become a lavish artistic salon, which played host to such famous guests as Louis XIII of France and Emperor Franz Jozef of Austria.

Unfortunately due to Covid-19 only 7 people an hour allowed inside so sold out by 12.30, so we just toured the grounds (pln 6 for 2 adults/2 kids!). These have some very impressive trees - plane, beech, maple, line, oak etc. and a very nice tour. The orchid house was shut but has a very pleasant cafe in the courtyard. The last owner of the castle (Alfred Potocki d.1958 France) left in 1944 before the Russians turned up. He loaded up 13 privately commissioned railway wagons with furniture and headed for Vienna and then steadily sold it to finance his lavish lifestyle. I felt the English-style park could be enlivened with more statues and a small herd of deer.

I visited this synagogue a couple of years ago. It was a very emotional experience for me because this is where my ancestors were born and raised, married, prayed and died. My great grandfathers photo still hangs on the door to the smaller synagogue. He was the sexton in the synagogue before WWII. I went into the main sanctuary to pray and was overcome by emotion. This was exactly where my grandparents were married and went to pray every saturday. I intend to visit again this year. This place I will never forget.
