Things to do in Krzepice: a Gothic church founded by Casimir the Great, a synagogue ruin by the Liswarta and the private Chmielarski Brothers museum.
Krzepice lies in the Kłobuck county. Its three places tell the story of the town: from a medieval royal foundation to Jewish heritage and a private passion for collecting.
St James the Apostle's Church at Kazimierza Wielkiego 1 is a Gothic church founded by Casimir III the Great, dated to the 14th century in the monument register. After baroque alterations it has chapels and an image of Our Lady of the Rosary. It was often repaired after fires and wartime damage.
