Gołdap
Historical Towns and Villages
This town at the edge of the Romincka Primeval Forest, by the Kaliningrad Oblast, enjoys the status of a health resort, famous for its health-favourable climatic conditions and therapeutic mud, and visited by throngs of people every year.
The attractions awaiting them include, for example, a new saline graduation tower – the microclimate around it helps to treat rheumatic disorders, and numerous ailments of motor organs and the pulmonary system. A magnificent water tower from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries stands tall and proud over Gołdap’s roofs, with a café offering a nice view of the town. Near the town, on the slopes of the Beautiful Mountain in the Szeskie Hills, there is a skiing complex with the only chairlift in northern Poland and 2 km of pistes.
