Erected in the 14th century, the Gothic parish church was reconstructed and extended in the 17th century. Its interior features several gems, including a main altar from the 16th century, baroque stalls, tombstones and sculptures. Notable for its fine stucco decorations is an early-baroque chapel, built in the years 1647-1648 by an Italian architect. Last but not least, the 15th Franciscan church is also well worth a visit. Yet another of Krosno\u2019s treasures, one that definitely deserves a mention, is the huge bell known as \u201cUrban\u201d. Weighing 5 tonnes, it is one of Poland\u2019s biggest bells.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Besides historic monuments, the town has two interesting museums \u2013 the Museum of Craftsmanship and the District Museum. In the latter visitors will enjoy a rich collection of antique paraffin lamps as well as collections related to archaeology, history and the folk culture of both Krosno and its surroundings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Once you have seen all there is to see in Krosno, you can proceed to some distinctive places in the region of the Low Beskid and Pog\u00f3rze, such as the spa towns of Ryman\u00f3w and Iwonicz, the open-air museum devoted to the oil industry in the village of B\u00f3brka, Odkrzykon Castle and the \u201cPrz\u0105dki\u201d stone preservation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Did I miss something?Let us know if you have other suggestions for the must see in Krosno!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Do nast<\/strong><strong>\u0119pnego razu&#8230; <\/strong>(Till next time&#8230;)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I wanted to give you some ideas what is worth seeing if you are in Krosno area.\u00a0A charming town in southern Poland, Krosno is primarily known as a big glass-manufacturing center.
