The former governor general of Krakow and much-loved statesman in Poland, Jan Zamoyski, established his summer residence in Zwierzyniec in the 16th century. He built a palace of wood and larch, where he received distinguished guests and came to rest with his family.

Opposite the summer residence, he and his wife Teresa had the church known as Saint-Jean Népomucène built. The residence is today a spa resort. You can taste local beers and rent bikes there.

The summer residence of Prince Zamoyski, the founder of Zamosc, is now a popular health resort. The highlight is the brewery with bike rental. Please note, 0.0 per mille also applies to cyclists, but the Green Velo leads directly into the forest, control unlikely. The excellent beer that can be tasted in the brewery is not available in the shop, only in selected restaurants, such as my favorite pub in Szczecin, Dzika Gens (wild goose)

In 1593, Jan Zamoyski purchased the Szczebrzeszyn estate. There, near the village of Rudka, in the valley of the Wieprz River and the Świerszcz Stream, in an area covered with forests, he decided to realize the Renaissance idea of a "villa." He built a wooden, larch palace where he hosted distinguished guests and relaxed with his family. Early on, Jan Zamoyski also brought to the area gentle animals such as red deer, roe deer, fallow deer, and wild horses, also known as tarpans. These animals gave rise to Zwierzyńczyk and later Zwierzyniec. The summer palace was demolished due to its age in the mid-19th century and stood in the center of Zwierzyniec between two brick outbuildings – where the Woodworking School is currently located. Opposite their summer residence, Tomasz Antoni Zamoyski and his wife, Teresa Michowska, built a palace-style church in thanksgiving to God for the birth of their long-awaited son, Klemens. The Church of St. John of Nepomuk remains a major tourist attraction in Roztocze National Park.
