12. Lublin
Lublin was established in the south-eastern part of Poland during the 6th century C.E., but only during the 10th century it became an actual settlement, thanks to its strategic location for both commercial and military purposes. These days, visitors will find paved streets, many ancient buildings from various time periods, a large museum, many art galleries, and various festivals. In fact, Lublin is nicknamed “Poland’s festival capital”. If you stop by, be sure to visit its famous castle, which is one of the town’s most iconic sites.
