Museums
ruins of the Kossak family's Baroque manor from 1734 and a cultural centre in a park with an avenue of limes and oaks
Architecture in Górki Wielkie includes a Gothic church above the Brennica, the ruins of the Kossak Baroque manor and a museum in the gardener's cottage.
The figure of Zofia Kossak links the three places. The set suits those who like monuments tied to the story of a well-known family.
The Church of All Saints at Pod Zebrzydkę 4 is a fifteenth-century Gothic parish church, set on the Brennica's right bank. It is in the register of monuments, and bats protected by a Natura 2000 area live in its attic. A cemetery adjoins it, and Zofia Kossak's grave is there.
The Kossak Manor at Stary Dwór 4 was the family's seat. Of the Baroque manor of 1734, raised on the initiative of Hieronim Marklowski, ruins remain, and a Centre for Culture and Art operates beside them.
The Zofia Kossak-Szatkowska Museum at Stary Dwór 2 occupies the cottage once used by the manor's gardener, where the writer lived. It is a biographical branch of the Cieszyn Silesia Museum.
No, only ruins remain of the manor of 1734, but a culture centre operates nearby.
The settlement is at Górki Wielkie; similar buildings elsewhere are under Architecture.
