Explore Place
Dietl Square can undoubtedly be called the cultural and leisure centre of Szczawnica. The buildings surrounding the charming fountain and the proximity to the main attractions of the spa make it the ideal starting point for exploring the town. On the western side of the square are the Pump Room and Cafe "Helenka", where everyone will find something to their liking. It is also worth leaving some time for a ride on the "ciuchcią", i.e. a train-shaped vehicle slowly making its way through the streets of Szczawnica. History lovers, on the other hand, may be interested in visiting the Spa Museum. The fountain in the middle of the square and the nearby statue of Józef Dietl will undoubtedly attract the attention of every passer-by.
