Bolestraszyce

 

HOW TO GET THERE

In the Arboretum there are nearly four thousand species, forms and varieties of plants. Foundations of the establishment are linked with a landed estate whose origins go back to the Middle Ages. Located on the first floor of the manor house, the natural history museum presents a few exhibitions. Within the arboretum you can also see a 19th century fort, once part of the fortress of Przemyśl.

 

International Festival of Dogwood takes place here; the aim of the event is to promote knowledge about traditional products including those made of Cornelian Cherry.
