Zamość Stop, Łańcut Visit, and Stay in Krakow

Your day begins with a driver picking you up from your hotel. The first stop is Zamość, a UNESCO World Heritage town known for its Renaissance layout and architecture. You'll have time to enjoy a coffee in the main square, which has retained much of its original charm and structure. The quiet streets and orderly arcades give a sense of the town’s carefully planned design and historical importance. From Zamość, the journey continues to Łańcut, home to one of Poland’s most architecturally significant synagogues. Built in 1761, the Łańcut Synagogue is a well-preserved example of Baroque religious architecture. Inside, detailed polychrome artwork and decorative stucco ceilings reflect the craftsmanship of the time. Although it no longer functions as a place of worship, it has been thoughtfully restored and now serves as the Museum of Judaica. The museum holds a small but meaningful collection of objects related to Jewish life and culture in the region. Visiting this space offers insight into the role this community played in the local history. The synagogue’s preservation reflects efforts to maintain cultural memory through architecture, art, and collected artifacts. After your visit, you’ll continue your journey to Krakow with time to reflect on what you’ve seen. You will then arrive in Krakow where you will check in at your hotel.
