Poland - Kamień Śląski

Kamień Śląski is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Gogolin, within Krapkowice CountyOpole Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 9 kilometres (6 mi) north-east of Gogolin, 13 km (8 mi) north-east of Krapkowice, and 17 km (11 mi) south-east of the regional capital Opole.
The palace in Kamien Slaski is a Baroque building from the seventeenth and eighteenth century. The shrine of St. Jack belongs to it. The object was not affected during World War II. At the end of the war, the palace was turned into a military hospital because of the proximity to the airport transporting wounded soldiers. In 1945 Kamień Śląski was invaded  by the Soviet army, which plundered the palace and burned the chapel.
