Today, the borders of the forest inspectorate amount to 485 kilometers and extend to two voivodships: Opolskie and Śląskie. The cavernous forests through which nature paths run are still full of animals, and the rich history reminds trees hundreds of years old - monuments of nature. No wonder that these areas will attract enthusiasts of active recreation.
For years, field lessons have been conducted in the forest inspectorate, you can also take part in a trip with a forester. Many interesting events are organized in the Forest Educational and Tourist Board, an architecturally interesting wooden building constructed in the barn building from 1920.
Horses are an inseparable element of the landscape. They have been grazing here slowly for years, and at the sight of walkers they gracefully run to the pen and can be petted. They live on a fenced area of over 5 hectares all year round. They are Polish horses, descendants of already extinct tarpans, wild steeds that were recently seen in the Białowieża Forest at the end of the 18th century.
Zawadzkie Farm with horses
The Zawadzkie Forest Inspectorate is an extremely picturesque place. Even in the 18th century there was a forest here remembering the hunting times of the Silesian Piasts. This place was called "Tiergarden", meaning "Forest Zwierzyniec".

How it working
To listen to the history of monuments as part of the "Discover History" project, you need to follow a few simple steps. Below, we present a short, step-by-step "user manual" to provide a relatively simple way to access the mini-auditions.
You need a smartphone with a camera. The camera lens should be pointed at the information plaque located next to the monument. Below is a view of the plaque itself and its example location next to the Karol Musioł monument in Opole.
After pointing your smartphone's camera at the QR code located on the right side of the plaque, the app's welcome screen will appear, followed by a screen with the name, photo of the monument, and the "START" button.
The "START" button starts the audio recording process.
Your smartphone will prompt you with the next steps after you listen to the story or pause it. Please keep an eye on your smartphone screen!
Other available options: brief information about the monument, author of the text and recording, list of other monuments in the city included in the "Discover History" project, downloadable map of monuments, video, and social media links

Monuments in cities remind us of the history of places and people, and allude to important events. They are also works of art. Bronze, metal, wood, or concrete transformed into the form of a monumental obelisk attract attention. We enjoy sitting by them, taking photos, and making appointments.
Project partners
Implementing the "Discover history" project in each city requires the involvement of many people: programmers, graphic designers, writers, actors, sound engineers, and coordinators. It is thanks to them that this project came to life.
Our ambition is to continually expand its reach. Therefore, we thank our current partners and invite additional cities, institutions, companies, and individuals to collaborate!
