The railway bridge suspended over the Gwda between Górzna and Jastrowie is a unique historical monument and one of the most interesting tourist attractions in the region. Built in 1914, it was supposed to support the economic development of these areas, but it was partially blown up by retreating German troops in 1945. The ruins of the bridge have survived to this day, hanging picturesquely over the river, attracting photographers, cyclists and history buffs. Despite the lack of utility, its industrial silhouette in the natural surroundings makes a big impression. The bridge is visible from the main road, but you can get closer by taking a path from the west.

A resting place in the center of the village decorated with many wooden sculptures, especially carved benches. It looks beautiful, right next to a wooden chapel.

Church from 1798. It probably stands on the site of an older temple. In 1893 it was renovated. It was boarded up then, but post-war renovation restored its original appearance.

A bridge built over the Gwda River in 1914. The Jastrowie - Złotów railway line ran through here. The bridge was made of steel, in a truss structure and was about 60 meters long. In February 1945, retreating German troops blew up the bridge, but it was not completely destroyed, it only got jammed between the damaged abutments. After the war, the railway line was dismantled and taken to the USSR, but the bridge remained and in this form it exists to this day.
