Attractions and Places To See around Dmosin - Top 20

After a wonderful bike ride, I reached the church in Pszczonów – a truly historic site, as it was the setting for the adaptation of Reymont's novel "Chłopi" (The Peasants). The interior of this church, rich in history – dating back to the 15th and 16th centuries, with numerous renovations and Baroque polychrome – gained a new dimension thanks to the film adaptation. In the 1972 film adaptation, directed by Jan Rybkowski, alongside excellent actors – Władysław Hańcza (Maciej Boryna), Ignacy Gogolewski (Antek Boryna), Emilia Krakowska (Jagna), Krystyna Królówna (Hanka) – residents of Lipce Reymontowskie, Pszczonów, and Słupia also appeared as extras. They brought costumes, props, interiors, and the dialect of bygone times – making the adaptation incredibly authentic and vivid. This is a story truly worth seeing, especially since "The Peasants" is not only one of the greatest Polish novels but also a work by Nobel laureate Reymont – full of rich literary and social context and a profound portrayal of the countryside. The film adaptation captures its spirit and the vibrant folk culture; it is a true tribute to national tradition and the life of the ancient countryside.

A must-see and worth seeing.

The "Praga" Mill - a wooden water mill on the Mroga River built in the 1920s or earlier, located in the former mill settlement of Praga, currently on the border of the villages of Kołacin and Kobylin, in Brzeziny County, Łódź Province. The facility is entered in the municipal register of monuments of the Rogów commune. Water mills on the Mroga River in this location were mentioned in sources from the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. The memory of the mill existing in the 19th century has been preserved: it was a wooden, single-storey building located partly on stilts above the water and partly on solid land, equipped with a water wheel. This mill served as a manor mill. It was dismantled at the end of the 19th century.

Wooden water mill on the Mrożyca River located in Dąbrówka Mała in the Łódź province, built in 1948. In the 19th century, there was a fulling mill here and a neighboring mill powered by a water wheel. During World War I, the wheel was replaced by a water turbine and equipped with rollers and newer cleaning devices. The mill was dismantled by the Germans during World War II. The current mill was built in 1948 on the site of the former mill. The mill represents a post and beam construction. It is single-storey with a superstructure, boarded with planks. It has a gable roof covered with roofing felt. It was initially powered by a water turbine, and then (from 1957) by an electric motor. It was still in operation in the 1970s. Currently out of operation.

Narrow Gauge Railway Rogów – Rawa – Biała (colloquial: Kolej Rogowska) – the first and only museum narrow gauge railway in the Łódź province. Previous names were Rogow Feldbahn, Rogowska Kolej Dojazdowa and Rogowska Kolej Wąskotorowa. The name currently used also functioned in the interwar period. Its beginnings date back to 1915 when German troops built a military field railway with a 600 mm gauge connecting Rogów with Biała Rawska. The narrow gauge railway was used to supply the German front with food, weapons and ammunition. It was used to transport soldiers and evacuate the wounded. Construction of the Rogów – Rawa – Biała Narrow Gauge Railway began on February 28, 1915. Construction was carried out by the 22nd Reserve Eisenbahn Kompanie and three other German railway companies. The railway was built to supply the eastern front near the Rawka and Pilica rivers. The line ran from the standard gauge railway station in Rogów to Biała Rawska via Głuchów and Rawa Mazowiecka. After the end of World War I, the Rogów–Rawa–Biała Narrow Gauge Railway was taken over by PKP. In 1954, it was re-gauged to a 750 mm gauge. In 1996, it was entered into the register of historical monuments. In 2001, PKP decided to liquidate it. It was saved from destruction by the Foundation of Polish Narrow Gauge Railways (FPKW), which restored it to a state of technical efficiency. The Rogów Towarowy Narrow Gauge Station houses the second largest collection of historic narrow gauge rolling stock in Poland. The entire railway is maintained thanks to the work of volunteers, who can be joined by any railway enthusiast.

The Arboretum of the Warsaw University of Life Sciences is one of the largest gardens of this type in Poland. It is an organizational unit of the Forest Experimental Station in Rogów, which also includes the Nature and Forest Education Center, the Rogów Forest District and a nursery farm. It is located in a former forest habitat and has the character of a forest park. It contains some of the richest and most interesting collections of trees and shrubs in Central and Eastern Europe. The whole is complemented by forest experimental areas with foreign species of forest trees and an alpine garden.

The parish in Pszczonów was probably established at the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries, certainly before 1366. From the records of the Gniezno Chapter we learn that the metropolitan archbishop of Gniezno, Jarosław Bogoria Skotnicki, having established the wójt in Pszczonów and having sold it in 1366 to a certain Tomasz, obliged him to pay the local priest a tithe according to the guidelines. In the 15th century, the metropolitan archbishop of Gniezno, Jakub of Sienna, the primate of Poland (1474-1480), built a second church, dedicated to All Saints and St. Dorothy, virgin and martyr. The church in Pszczonów is known from the film adaptation of Reymont's "Chłopi" - it was there that Maciej Boryna and Jagna were married.
