Oswiecim – Underground

Distance: 2.6 km

Under the castle hill in Oswiecim, there are two tunnels running between the streets of Zamkowa and Bulwary. The first and older one runs in an east-west direction, connecting the opposite slopes of the hill.

During the German occupation, these tunnels served as air-raid shelters, and their entrances led from the castle courtyard. Descent via rungs in a vertical ventilation shaft was located on the side of the present Zamkowa Street.
