Camera Obscura

Please note that the Camera Obscura can only be visited with a guide, and guided visits are currently available in Polish only.

The elevator emerges from underground and takes visitors to a height of 25 meters. From above the tree line surrounding the observatory, you can see a panoramic view of Silesian Park and the surrounding cities. On clear days, you can also catch a glimpse of the mountains. However, our tower is not just an ordinary observation point. At the top, awaits a surprise, which is related to a very old optical instrument used by Leonardo Da Vinci himself...
