Kamień Śląski, Historical village in Opole Voivodeship, Poland

The village lies 17 kilometers southeast of Opole, featuring a notable palace complex surrounded by gardens and a pond with fountains.

The earliest documentation of Kamień Śląski appears in the 12th-century chronicle Gesta principum Polonorum as a seat of Polish ruler Bolesław III Wrymouth.

The palace houses the sanctuary of Saint Hyacinth, a Dominican priest born in the village in 1183, attracting religious pilgrims throughout the year.

The settlement maintains essential infrastructure including schools, shops, and public facilities, connected to neighboring cities through local road networks.

The palace ballroom displays handcrafted tapestries depicting coats of arms of previous owners, representing centuries of noble family heritage.
