Radkow: Zabytkowy budynek dawnego gimnazjum
The landscape around Radków is defined by the wooded sandstone escarpments of the Stołowe Mountains, which have shaped both the built environment and local life. This Lower Silesian town stands near the Polish–Czech border and the Stołowe Mountains National Park, whose distinctive flat-topped formations are carved from sandstone. The historic building of the former gymnasium forms part of Radków’s small-scale civic architecture. Around it, a compact town of tiled roofs and mature trees meets the open foothills, while the mountain massif gives the settlement a strong sense of enclosure. Radków is a practical base for exploring the national park and the wider Kłodzko region.

Radków combines the compact character of a historic border town with the open foothill setting of the Stołowe Mountains, reflecting its position in Lower Silesia near the Czech frontier. The town stands beside Table Mountains National Park, where unusually level sandstone plateaus and eroded rock formations set this part of the Sudetes apart. Its market square preserves the traditional centre of Radków, with the parish Church of St Dorothea among the town’s established landmarks. Paths and roads from here lead towards Szczeliniec Wielki, one of the best-known summits in the range.

Poland stretches from the Baltic Sea coast in the north to the Carpathian Mountains along its southern frontier, encompassing broad lowlands, lake districts and upland ranges. The Vistula, the country’s longest river, links Kraków and Warsaw before reaching the Baltic near Gdańsk, while the Masurian Lake District is defined by a dense network of lakes. Kraków’s historic centre, including Wawel Castle, recalls Poland’s former royal capital; Warsaw’s rebuilt Old Town speaks to the city’s recovery after the Second World War.
