The Second place we stopped was Tyniec, home to a 11th century Benedictine Abbey. My wife knew about it and said it was very old and very beautiful. She was right on both accounts and as the weather continued to be perfect we once again had a nice stop.
The wall towards the left (with the cross in front of it) is part of the original structure build in 1044. As with other European building the Abby has been destroyed at various points in time due to disuse and war.
It is built on the bend of a river and has a commanding view of the surrounding countryside.
