Milicz is a town located in central Poland, specifically in the northern part of the Lower Silesian province. Milicz is about 60 kilometers from the region's capital, Wroclaw. Other important cities nearby are: Trzebnica, Rawicz, Krotoszyn, Ostrzeszow and Ostrów Wielkopolski. Milicz, which lies on the Barycz River, is home to about 11,000 people. Historians trace the beginnings of settlement in the area to the 9th century. In the 10th century a castle was erected in the area, which was expanded in subsequent years.
What monuments in Milicz await visitors? The answer to this question will be best sought at the Tourist Information Point, located in the "Old Slaughterhouse" building on the Market Square. It is the central square of the town that tourists are first drawn to. In addition to the aforementioned Tourist Information Point, it also houses the best restaurants and cafes, where you can take a break and gain strength for sightseeing. What, besides the Market Square, is worth seeing in Milicz?
The town boasts several impressive religious buildings. Among them are the Neo-Renaissance Church of St. Michael the Archangel from the 19th century, St. Anne's Church from the 19th century, the half-timbered church (once Evangelical now Roman Catholic) of St. Andrew Bobola. There are also non-sacred buildings: the ruins of the castle of the Dukes of Oleśnica, dating back to the 14th century, or the 18th century classicist palace designed by Karol Geissler. The palace complex also includes an English-style park. Walking around the town, one should also pay attention to the ruins of the Black Gate, the building of the former pharmacy and now PKO BP bank, the tomb of Count Maltzan and the manor gate.
However, it is not the historical buildings that are the main tourist attraction of the town. Local authorities are keen to emphasize the natural advantages of the region, which create excellent opportunities when it comes to active forms of tourism. There are several agritourism farms in the municipality. There are also nature and educational paths (some leading through the "Milicz Ponds" nature reserve) and bicycle routes. Suffice it to say that Milicz is on the route of the Lower Silesian Bicycle Land - a consortium of local governments emphasizing the cycling qualities of the area. The Milicz commune is a proverbial paradise for fans of two wheels. Some consider the town to be the Bicycle Capital of Lower Silesia - as 100 km of bicycle trails have been marked out in the commune. If we add to this the long kilometers of forest trails located in the Barycz Valley, a recreational lagoon with a municipal beach and an ornithological observation tower in Garbownik Milicka, we have a picture of a commune where active tourists will not be bored!
Among the most recommended dining outlets in the municipality are Milicz Nad Zalewem restaurant, Zacisze Port, U Góral bar, Parkowa restaurant, Mai Lan oriental restaurant and Lema restaurant. Milicz also has no shortage of pizzerias and fast food establishments.
