In the 2022 competition for Lower Silesia’s Best Tourist Product, the Certificate was awarded to:

  • Toy Museum in Kudowa-Zdrój, a journey through time for all generations. Established in 2002 by a couple of enthusiasts, the museum now displays more than 5,000 exhibits from around the world.
  • Creative Workshops in the Land of Extinct Volcanoes, brought together in the Kaczawska Cooperation Network, are an example of a successful presentation of the tourist offer of the Kaczawskie Foothills and Kaczawskie Mountains, as well as a very broad range of themed workshops for all age groups.
  • Stara Kopalnia Centre of Science and Art in Wałbrzych, a facility presenting former mining techniques and unique movable and immovable industrial heritage. It offers an interesting exhibition and a comprehensive programme for school groups.

Travel to Stara Kopalnia in Wałbrzych with Koleje Dolnośląskie S.A.

Until the end of 2022, KD invites visitors to take advantage of the “Return for free!” offer.

How does it work?

Simply purchase a train ticket to Wałbrzych at a ticket office or from the conductor, indicating that you wish to use the “Return for free” offer. We remind you that the nearest station is Wałbrzych Centrum, from which the museum can be reached on foot.

The Special Certificate, an award for the best “young” tourist product in Lower Silesia (meaning one operating for no more than two years), was awarded to:

  • R 26 PARK Skatepark Wałbrzych – the only year-round indoor skatepark in Wałbrzych. The largest offering for inline skaters, roller skaters, cyclists and skateboarders south of Wrocław.

The Golden Certificate was awarded to:

  • Wrocław Zoo – the zoological garden with the largest number of animals in Poland and the largest number of animal species. Its continuously developing conservation work and efforts to save endangered species received high praise.

The aim of the competition for Lower Silesia’s Best Tourist Product is to support the development of tourism in Lower Silesia by highlighting places and initiatives that offer tourists many opportunities to spend their free time in an interesting way. So far, a total of several dozen facilities and events in Lower Silesia have received certificates, which in recent years have become a genuine mark of quality for the industry.

The regional-stage winners will now take part in the nationwide competition for the Best Tourist Product, organised by the Polish Tourist Organisation. The POT Certificate raises the profile of a tourist product. It is a valuable award both in terms of image and marketing.
