Nowy Żmigród can be explored through several historical perspectives: religious heritage, traces of a manor house and remembrance of the First World War. Its specific features include a historic church with the Władysław Findysz sanctuary, the remains of a manor house complex and a historic cemetery chapel. A former manor house park with historic trees, as well as two pedunculate oaks beside a church, also shape the description of the town. If you are planning a stay, you can first consider which of these perspectives interests you most. This makes it possible to distinguish between religious history, historic landscapes and remembrance.

Church, Sanctuary and Pedunculate Oaks

A historic church in Nowy Żmigród houses the Władysław Findysz sanctuary. Findysz was a priest and martyr; the relics of Blessed Władysław Findysz are kept in a sarcophagus in a side chapel of the sanctuary. This precise location connects the memory of Findysz with the interior of the sanctuary. Two pedunculate oaks also stand beside a church in Nowy Żmigród. For travellers interested in cultural and natural heritage, these offer two different perspectives on the town.

Manor House Traces in the West

In the western part of Nowy Żmigród, by the Wisłoka River, lie the remains of a manor house complex and a former manor house park with historic trees. The pedunculate oaks beside a church are individual trees specified by their species and number; the former park, by contrast, features historic trees. This makes it possible to distinguish a single natural feature from the historic cultural landscape of the manor house. Those who want to explore the town beyond its religious sites can make the traces of the former manor house and the park landscape their focus here.

Cemetery Chapel and Military Cemetery

The historic cemetery chapel in the parish cemetery in Nowy Żmigród dates from the mid-19th century. The military cemetery no. 8, by contrast, commemorates the First World War and is located on the Eastern Front of the First World War Trail. The sites can therefore be clearly distinguished by period and theme: the chapel is identified by its date of construction and its location in the parish cemetery, while the military cemetery is identified by the war and its location on the named trail. Before visiting, check the local information about current conditions at the military cemetery so you can plan your visit accordingly.

Highlights for Your Stay

When choosing a focus for your stay, consider three different questions: Would you like to explore religious heritage, are you interested in the historic manor house landscape, or are you drawn to remembrance of the First World War? This distinction helps you organise the town’s features according to your personal interests. This way, your choices remain guided by what matters to you.
