The manor house complex in Kombornia dates from the mid-18th century and is one of the largest and best-preserved manor estates in the Subcarpathian region. Its origins go back further, to the 15th century. The two dates describe different aspects of the complex: its early origins and the protected historic ensemble dating from the mid-18th century.

The manor garden is characterised by highly varied terrain and an extensive water parterre. Numerous natural monuments can be found among the trees. The surrounding park with its ponds is also part of the manor house complex. If you are interested in historic estates and landscaped green spaces, Kombornia offers both architectural and landscape attractions.

The nature trail to Trzy Wody Waterfall runs through Kombornia-Granice Górne. It is 940 metres long and has three stops with information boards. The waterfall is about 5 metres high and 2 to 6 metres wide. It was recognised as a natural monument in 2008. Stairs and a viewing platform were built to make it safe to visit.

Another educational trail leads to the Bogumiła sulphur spring. It is 42 metres long and 0.60 metres wide, with two themed information boards along the way. Compared with the 940-metre route to the waterfall, this trail is much shorter. The measurements help you compare the scope of the two attractions without treating them as a single route.

The Zaginione Skałki along the path in Kombornia include a rock outcrop of hard Ciężkowice sandstone. It is about 40 metres long and 3 to 7 metres high. Alongside the waterfall and spring, this gives visitors a geological point of interest; the measurements are approximate.

The Church of Our Lady of Consolation was consecrated in 1958. Built from jointed brick in the Vistula-Baltic style of Polish architecture, it has three naves and stands on a sandstone plinth. Its main altar is Baroque and dates from before 1775. It also features a Baroque image of Our Lady of Consolation from the second half of the 17th century.

The story of Saint John of Dukla is also present in Kombornia. The saint’s relics have been permanently housed in the parish church of Kombornia since 26 May 1999; they were placed in the apse behind the main altar. The spring of Saint John of Dukla still stands by the main road. According to tradition, he is said to have rested there; local people attribute healing properties to the spring.
