Racibórz - Walk from the Castle to the Town

Racibórz stands out for its long history and fascinating monuments. On the bank of the Oder stands the castle, whose jewel is the strikingly beautiful Gothic Chapel of St Thomas Becket from the late 13th century. The mystery of a secret passage under the river, which Princess Euphemia is said to have used to reach the Dominican convent, remains unsolved.

We prepared a walk from the castle courtyard across the bridge over the Oder, past the Church of St James and the former Dominican Church of the Holy Spirit (now a museum with an Egyptian mummy), to Wolności Square and through streets full of monuments to the heart of the town – the beautiful Market Square. A separate version brings the history closer to children.
