Lublin from above

The best viewpoints in the city

What do you think  about changing perspective and going higher? We have several suggestions for the best places to admire Lublin from above.

  • Donjon, a Romanesque tower at the Lublin Castle, is a 3-floor building with a deck on the last floor. Once it was a habitable and defensive tower, and today it allows tourists to admire a beautiful panorama of the Old Town. Tickets are available at the box office of the National Museum in Lublin, located in the castle.
  • The Czwartek hill is considered the cradle of Lublin. “Czwartek” means “Thursday”. The first Thursday fairs in the settlement gave a name to the hill. Today, you can visit the Church of St. Mikołaj, and from the adjacent areas you can watch the panorama of the Old Town.
