Only in Lower Silesia will you discover mysterious corridors of unknown purpose, medieval castles that are haunted, beautiful baroque palaces shrouded in legends. Perhaps the secret German weapon, the Wunderwaffe, was produced here. Only in Lower Silesia will you see unusual rock formations resembling people and animals, hidden labyrinths of karst caves with remains of prehistoric animals. It was in Lower Silesia that the famous seducer Giacomo Casanova won the charms of women, alchemists searched for the philosopher's stone, and herbalists and so-called lab technicians tried to prepare an elixir of youth from the plants of the Sudeten meadows. You will also discover extraordinary modern buildings such as the Centennial Hall, similar in size to the dome of St. Peter's Basilica.
