Really charming little zoo. With good selection of species and enclosures which look quite comfortable for animals.
Big cats, hippos, giraffes and gorillas can be found. Also wolves and owls.
Perfect place to spend couple of hours. Looks like it gets crowded with school trips so week day afternoon can be most quiet time to visit.

It was a nice surprise as I was expecting just another pretty boring dinosaur park for children and this one was actually very nice. t's interactive, the attractions are well designed and show. It starts with time tunnel on the bus ad 3D movie which might be a bit scare for the little ones , then it proceeds with quite long walk through the land of dinosaurs which are actually real size tall but the best is anyway in the prehistoric aquarium. I have seen plenty of Aquariums around the world but this one is really special and can be scary even for adults ! you can't get bored , I appreciate a lot for that
If you can during the week ether are not so many people and children can play a lot with the 3 carousel and roller coaster which are free for use
There is a lake too so you can swim but take care there are leeches there!
All in all very good day can be spend there, 5D cinema is also quite fun and on the good level
You won't regret! Perfect for children under 10!

If one wants to see how people lived in past centuries, it is advisable to visit the place. It shows small peasant huts, old workshops and present the well preserved atmosphere of villiges which have disappeared nowedays. Besides there is a good restaurant there, where one make teste the peasents dishes. I recommend the visit to families with children - both, young and tens.
5. Piast Tower

Reviewed By ChrisD2002 - Heidelberg, Germany
One of the main historical attractions of Opole, recently modernised and equipped with some information media (sound, shadow, CGI panoramic view) is a "must-see". And worth visiting, as it offers a great story of Silesian history (between Czech, German, Polish, Jewish, Austrian, etc influences), and even an impressive view of the town and surroundings.

I you like Gothic architecture you will be more than happy. It takes you max half an hour to visit a church. I would recommend also going for a lunch in old Opole market (Rynek). The church is beautiful. As far as I was informed It was erected in the mid 16th century.

Go into this place if you really have a lot of time. There is interesting things, you can listen to polish songs (actually museum exposition and audio-guide IS IN POLISH ONLY), but you really need to spend over 4-5 hours here.

Amazing amount of displays in this museum and apparently not room for all they have. Although I went there due to my father being a POW there fromSt Valery, the amount of Polish history and Soviet history also was so interesting. Our guide, Sebastian, was so enthusiastic about the history and although we thought he was with us for two hours, he remained for four hours, showing us so much outwith the museum which would have meaning to me. Sebastian, you are a star! You brought it all to life, but in such a way, what could have been a very emotional day for me became one of such interest with both of us able to swap stories from that time. Thank you so much.

Museum of Polish Monarchs from The Piast Dynasty in Silesia.
Reviewed By DHalps - Hampton, Virginia
The Museum is built on the inside of an old castle. You can have tours of the many rooms which include the tombs (which contain sarcophagus of royalty), statues by Polish sculptors, and many paintings. There is also a kerosene lamp exhibit with a lot of really gorgeous lamps. The plaza in the middle of the castle has a great little bar where you can see and watch the goings-on. If you leave through the back of the courtyard, there is a nice park and walking trail and you can make your way down to the river that goes through Brzeg. A few short steps outside the castle is the Raising of the Holy Cross Church, a wonderful Baroque church. It's definitely worth taking a stop by!
