Tidy village with a somehow remote feel, between forest and Sawica creek, that has a tradition as a colony of German and Polish farmers and foresters cultivating the once densely forested area. It sits at the crossroads of several enjoyable gravel tracks going star-shaped in all directions. A large information panel provides historic context and old photographs.

Kucbork (German: Kutzburg, Kottenberg) – a village located in the southern part of the Masurian Lake District, on the Kurpie–Masuria border, in the Warmian–Masurian Voivodeship, in the Szczytno district, in the Wielbark commune. Kucbork is located on the Sawica River, 4 km north of Wielbark. A forge existed here as early as 1360 (it survived until the beginning of the 19th century!). The village was founded in 1408, granted to five beekeepers. At the end of the 15th century, the number of beekeepers, encouraged by the favorable conditions of settlement, increased even more. A small estate belonging to the metallurgical masters was established at the forge. In the second half of the 16th century, the village covered only 6 łans, but later, as part of the box settlement, its area increased significantly. In the mid-19th century, the village had 110 łans, although most of it was occupied by pastures, meadows and forests. During World War I, Kucbork was partially burned down; later rebuilt from the destruction.
