Tips

⛅🌳 Rowerowe Kujawy 🌲🌼

September 22, 2022

The settlement was established in 1862 as a hamlet of the nearby village of Otłoczyn, in connection with the launch of the "Warsaw-Bydgoszcz Iron Road". It was an important maneuvering station, a place for stopping and reloading echelons, the last on the Prussian side, before the nearby Prussian-Russian border marked by the Tążyna River.

The buildings from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, currently adapted for residential purposes, once served as a station and rail dispatch (the largest), customs house and post office.

The solidity of the Prussian buildings, now over 150 years old, is striking. On the Russian side of the former border - emptiness. How much does that say about the intentions and skills of both nations.

If these buildings were renovated, it would be a beautiful mini-village located in the forest.
