Łańcut

Spend a half‑day in Łańcut: 2 h for the castle & park, 1 h for the synagogue or museum, then return to Rzeszów.

Łańcut is a small town near Rzeszów, best explored on foot in a few hours. The main draw is the historic castle and park, with several modest museums and a synagogue nearby. One half‑day is enough for the highlights; a full day allows a relaxed pace and a visit to the distillery museum.
