The 36-meter observation tower named after rotmistrz Witold Pilecki is located on Skała hill in Chełmek (Oświęcim county) and has been accessible to visitors since April 2026. It offers a panorama of the Oświęcim Basin, the Beskids, and the Tatras. The facility is open daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. The tower is named after rotmistrz Witold Pilecki. The location is not accidental – it was precisely through Chełmek and the surrounding forests that Pilecki's escape route from the KL Auschwitz camp ran in 1943. At the base of the tower, there is a plaque commemorating this event. This is a modern steel structure. The highest platform is at a height of 26 meters, which is enough to completely rise above the treetops and provide a 360-degree view. In good weather (especially with low humidity), you can see not only Babia Góra or the Tatras, but also characteristic points of Silesia, such as the Jaworzno Power Plant or the chimneys in Bieruń.

The Church of St. Nicholas is an interesting example. Its origins date back to the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries. It took on its current form after reconstruction in 1912-1914.
