Polkowice: Hotels and accommodations

History

In Polkowice, the Wiatrak Polkowicki is the town’s only surviving windmill. The present-day structure was built in the 1880s after an earlier wooden windmill burned down in 1846. The Wiatrak Polkowicki houses an exhibition on the history of Polkowice; guided tours and participation in artistic and ethnographic workshops are also offered there.

The Church of St. Michael the Archangel is the oldest sacred monument in Polkowice and was built in the second half of the 14th century as a wooden Catholic church. It contains two paintings from the time of the plague epidemic of 1680, including a votive painting in the chancel, as well as an altar dedicated to St. Sebastian and a painting. The Church of St. Barbara was built in the mid-18th century as a Protestant church; its tower dates from 1828.
