Driving directions:

From Chęciny (15 km south-west of Kielce) you need to drive down the road no 762 in the direction of Małogoszcz. After covering around 9 km turn right to Bolmin. Through a village drive straight ahead all the way long and when the school is visible on the right side, you have to turn in its direction into an asphalt road. Arrive up in the place, at which an asphalt ends and directly opposite a slight hill densely overgrown with trees will be observable. There exactly the ruins are situated. As to reach to them you ought to choose the path on the right. If it was invested in an asphalt road in Bolmin in the future and it did not end at a described place, but extended further, the road, at the end of which the ruins are, will connect with the other road (currently a ballast one) at a right angle creating a T-shaped junction. By that you will be able to recognize a sought place.


Historical outline:

The manor was erected the most probably at the end of the XVIth cent. and belonged to the family of Bolmiński. It lost its splendor after the World War II.
