The best walks and hikes around gmina Góra Świętej Małgorzaty

Monument to the Heroes of the Battle of the Bzura. A commemoration of those fighting in the Battle of the Bzura, erected by the market square. It makes a somewhat chaotic impression, but it's there.

Church of St. Andrew the Apostle. Consecrated at the beginning of the 15th century, the Gothic temple was later rebuilt in the Baroque style. Nicely renovated from the outside, it makes a great impression. Unfortunately, I could only see the interior through the glass, the doors were closed, but you can see that it looks beautiful inside too. I recommend seeing it if anyone has the chance.

The historic Market Square in Łęczyca with its neoclassical town hall from the late 18th century is the picturesque heart of the city, ideal for a stroll among historic townhouses and traces of the region's centuries-old history.

The Royal Castle in Łęczyca is a Gothic fortress from the times of Casimir the Great, today the seat of a museum and the legendary land of the devil Boruta, also offering a view from the castle tower.

The initiative to build a church and monastery in Łęczyca came from Dorota Piwowska, who in 1632 invited the Bernardines to the land near the Poznań Gate in Łęczyca. The list of benefactors is long. Thanks to them, the brothers completed the construction of a single-nave church between 1636 and 1643. It was consecrated in 1652. The original interior was sparse. The current interior dates from the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries. The polychrome was created by Brother Walenty Żebrowski. The church's interior, decorated in the spirit of the theatrum sacrum, is one of the most beautiful in the entire Bernardine Province.

Łęczyca was chartered under German law before 1260. The oldest brick town hall, mentioned as early as the late 14th century, was located – as archaeological research has shown – in the central part of the Market Square. The town hall was built as the seat of the mayor, councilors, the city court, the land courts, and the city archives. It also housed a prison and the city scales. The building also housed the executioner's axe. The date and cause of the destruction of the first town hall are unknown. A 1777 inventory contains information about the town's lack of a town hall, the town council meeting in private homes, and the storage of documents in the mayor's house – likely the reason for the 1787 decision by the Police Department of the Permanent Council to rebuild the town hall in Łęczyca. At the same time, the idea arose to adapt the former Jesuit church as the seat of the city authorities, but this was rejected due to the high costs of the conversion and the building's distance from the city center. Ultimately, architect Jakub Kubicki, the then city architect, decided to build a new town hall on the Market Square, on the site of the former municipal seat. He also prepared a building design and a detailed work program. This plan included involving residents in the construction work to reduce construction costs and sourcing bricks from the old city walls. The Łęczyca municipal seat was built with funds granted to the city by the king and thanks to the efforts of the residents. Construction work was carried out between 1788 and 1790. The first session of the town council in the new town hall took place in 1791.

The prison gate from the film "Vabank" in the former prison on Pocztowa Street. This facility was used as a filming location not only for "Vabank" but also for other productions, such as "Papusza." The prison closed in 2006 and is now partially open to the public as a museum.

A defensive structure in Łęczyca, erected by King Casimir the Great. The exact date of the castle's commencement and completion is unknown. Construction work may have begun shortly after 1345, when the Łęczyca lands still belonged to Duke Władysław the Hunchback, but were no longer his principal residence. King Casimir the Great, naturally in consultation with the Duke, could have begun the defensive project at that time.
