Military buffs will want to see the remnants of Austria-Hungary鈥檚 Przemy艣l Fortress surrounding the town. As these were mostly earth ramparts, however, they are now overgrown and resemble natural rather than artificial bulwarks. They're a fair distance out of town, but among the best examples are Fort I (Salis Soglio) in Sieliska, Fort VIII (艁臋townia) in Ku艅kowce and Fort XIII (San Rideau) in Bolestraszyce. The tourist office can provide information about the sites and transport details.
Literature fans may be interested in knowing that Czech author Jaroslav Ha拧ek set part of his classic WWI novel The Good Soldier 艩vejk in Przemy艣l, and Ha拧ek鈥檚 hapless antihero, 艩vejk, even spent some time behind bars here. Town fathers have made a virtue of this dubious connection to world literature and you鈥檒l see Czech artist Josef Lada鈥檚 famous comical illustration of 艩vejk on signs around town. There鈥檚 even a little statue of 艩vejk on the Rynek 鈥 you can pose with him for a photo.
