Quest

We
encourage you to actively visit Kórnik Castle.

With our visitors in mind, we have developed a
quest “Kórnik Castle”. It is a field game which leads the participants in an
interesting way across the rooms of the Castle. Your guide will be count Tytus
Działyński, the Castle’s owner and creator. During the tour, quizzes and tasks
are solved; ultimately, they will lead to a place where a “treasure” has been
hidden in the form of a stamp. In order to reach the “treasure”, the
participants need to arrive at the password.
Game time: approx. 45 minutes

Leaflets
with the game are available, free of charge, in the Castle’s cash desk or you
can print them.

PUT THE SLIPPERS ON

Because
the museum in Kórnik Castle has historic wooden floors, visitors are required
to put on felt slippers on top of their own shoes. NB: due to the pandemic,
since May 2020 we have temporarily decided not to use the slippers; the floors
have been safeguarded with carpets.

PRAMS

Dear
parents, because of the historical floors, it is not possible to use prams in
the Castle. Unfortunately, we do not have a pram storage room for the time of
the Castle tour.

THE LIFT

The
Castle has been equipped with a lift adjusted to handicapped visitors’ needs. Please
ask the Castle employees for assistance.

PHOTOGRAPHS AND VIDEOS

In
the course of visiting you can take pictures of the interiors, free of charge,
exclusively for private use.

Publishing
photos and recordings of the interiors of Kórnik Castle requires
permission of the management of Kórnik
Library. It is forbidden to use flashes and tripods!!!!
