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.

Bolzano is located in northern Italy on the border with Austria in the Trentino-Alto Adige region on the Isarco (Eisack) River. Throughout its history, the city has alternated between Austrian, German and Italian rule. Since 1969, Bolzano and the entire region have been autonomous. The city is a major tourist and winter sports center, and its biggest attraction is the famous Ötzi man, a more than 5,000-year-old man preserved in ice that was found near Bolzano.
The city is very charming and offers many interesting attractions. The most popular is, of course, provided by the Archaeological Museum of South Tyrol, where the mummy of the ice man, Ötzi, has been made available for viewing. In addition, take a stroll through the old town, see the medieval frescoes in the monumental Cathedral of the Assumption, visit the nearby Roncolo Castle (Runkelstein), or take the oldest cable car to the Polbis peaks, from where you can beautifully see the entire area. Bolzano's annual Ferruccio Busoni International Piano Competition is also an important attraction.
Bolzano is best reached by car or long-distance bus. It is not possible to get to this city by direct flight from Poland. However, planes to Bolzano fly from major Italian cities.
