Rezerwat przyrody Kręgi Kamienne

The Stone Circles Nature Reserve near Tumlin is located in the Swietokrzyskie Mountains and contains exposed Lower Triassic sandstone outcrops. The site features mixed forests dominated by pine and oak trees that have grown for several decades.

The stone circles within the reserve date back to the 8th to 9th centuries and represent ancient Slavic ritual practices. Later earthen fortifications built during World War I show how the land served military purposes in more recent times.

The chapel dedicated to the Transfiguration was built in 1850 and remains a focal point within the reserve. Visitors can explore this religious structure and see how local faith traditions connect with the natural landscape.

The Edmund Massalski Trail runs through the reserve and provides good access for hikers wanting to explore the area. Walking through offers views of both the rock formations and the forest in a compact setting.

Hidden beneath the forest floor are earthen trenches and fortifications from World War I that remain largely invisible to visitors. These military remnants create an unexpected layer of recent history within an otherwise natural setting.
