The beautiful market square in Lipnica Murowana, historic, impressive. Lipnica Murowana has a history stretching back to the Middle Ages, and the old town, including the Market Square, with arcade houses and remains of defensive walls, are entered in the register of monuments.

An incredible view from Szpilówka (516m), especially from the observation tower here above the treetops. This tower, it turns out, is the highest such tower in the region (34m high). From here, there is a view of the Beskid Wyspowy, Beskid Sądecki and Pogórze Różnowskie.

This cross has been standing here since 1864, since the January Uprising, so Piekarska Góra is a tourist and religious place - although Piekarska Góra itself is a bit to the west. The peak itself is in the forest, and this place here is much more interesting. There is a good information board and a nice gazebo here.

The tower is 33 meters high. And the views are amazing. With good visibility you can see the Tatras.

The cemetery was founded at the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. The last burial took place in 1931. Currently, the place of remembrance consists of a lapidarium of tombstones and crosses discovered on the site of the former cemetery.

The scope on the gun point. It's not the best but unlike others I've had to deal with, you can even see something through it.
