Cosmic Curiosities and UFO Legends
Start your journey in Emilcin, home to the country's only alien abduction monument. Honoring farmer Jan Wolski's 1978 encounter, the monument simply reads, "The truth will astonish us in the future."

Architecture lovers will enjoy Katowice's Spodek, a giant flying saucer-shaped arena, and the eerie Molke Museum in Ludwikowice Kłodzkie, known as the 'Nazi Stonehenge.' For something more recent, the Dominanta tower in Gorzów Wielkopolski stirs debate with its alien-spider design, while Kielce's bus station impresses with retro UFO styling.
