Fulda is located in the heart of Germany, in the state of Hesse on the river of the same name. It is a picturesque city with many baroque buildings, gardens and green spaces. Is it worth going here and what can you see?
Despite its overlooking Baroque setting, Fulda is actually a city with more than 1000 years of history. A Benedictine monastery was founded here as early as 744, and thanks to the learned monk Count Maur, the city became a major scientific center of the Frankish Empire. Fulda's Baroque appearance is mainly due to Abbot Adalbert von Schleifras, who was responsible for the construction of the city palace and the cathedral. Both buildings are on the first list of objects to see in the city. In addition to them, St. Michael's Church - one of the oldest in Germany, as evidenced by its well-preserved crypt dating back to the 9th century - is worth a visit. In the city center, noteworthy is the half-timbered old town hall with its arcades, as well as many cobblestone townhouses and buildings. Fulda has several parks, of which the Baroque garden by the city palace with its pond, numerous fountains and sculptures is particularly noteworthy.
Fulda is an important road junction and is located on the A7 Ulm-Hanower and A66 Frankfurt-Fulda highways. About 100 kilometers from Fulda lies Frankfurt am Main. From there, Fulda can be reached by direct train in about an hour and a half. The main train station in the city is located in the center, right next to the City Palace. The Fulda bus station is also located there and our long-distance coaches stop there. We will be a good choice if you are interested in buses to Germany. Fulda, on the other hand, is a city that will appeal to lovers of Baroque architecture, but also those looking for an atmospheric small city for a weekend city break.

Prudnik is a small town in Opole province, historically part of Upper Silesia. The rivers Prudnik and Zloty Potok flow through it. It is only 5.5 kilometers from the Czech border.
This medieval town was granted city rights in 1279. The only monument, so to speak, remembering those times is the castle tower (Woka Tower), the oldest tower of its kind in Upper Silesia, from which one can admire the panorama of the city and its immediate surroundings.
Prudnik was not heavily damaged during World War II, so it reflects well the atmosphere of the historic city. Worth seeing is Prudnik's rectangular market square with colorful 18th- and 19th-century townhouses. In its central part is the town hall with a tall tower, and some of the older buildings in the city - the Marian column and the statue of St. John Nepomucen.
Around the city, due to the nearby location of the Opawskie Mountains, one can also find many walking and hiking trails, and in nearby Prudnik-Les there is a well-known Franciscan monastery along with the St. Joseph's sanctuary, where Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski was imprisoned in 1954.
Prudnik is crisscrossed by national and provincial roads. The city is fairly well connected with its nearest neighbors and is located
on the route leading to the Trzebina-Vysoká border crossing with the Czech Republic.
The town also has a railway station and the Prudnik PKS bus station with frequent buses. Numerous connections to Polish and European cities depart from the bus station. If you have never been to Prudnik, but are planning a vacation in the Opawskie Mountains area, for example, visit this town as well - it will surely charm you.
