Windmill in Poland

Highlight • Monument

The windmill was built in 1705, as confirmed by the date engraved on the millstone (part of the mill mechanism), and was used to grind grain.

This is a classic post mill, i.e. a wooden structure on an axis (post), allowing the entire mill body, including the windmills, to rotate in relation to the wind — a popular form in rural regions in the 18th–19th centuries.

Lipiny Odrzańskie Railway Station

Highlight • Monument

The Lipiny Odrzańskie railway station was established together with the construction of railway line no. 275, connecting Wrocław with Gubin. This line was crucial for the region, enabling passenger and freight transport. The section through Lipiny Odrzańskie was launched at the end of the 19th century, or more precisely in 1876, when the section from Rudna Gwizdanów to Nowa Sól was opened.

For years, Lipiny Odrzańskie station played an important role for the local community. It was a point from which residents commuted to work, school or markets, as well as a place where agricultural and industrial goods were loaded and unloaded. The station building usually housed a ticket office, waiting room and apartments for railway employees.

After World War II, railway line no. 275 came under the management of the Polish State Railways (PKP). For many years, passenger and freight traffic was maintained. However, over time, in the face of the development of road transport and a decrease in the number of passengers, the importance of local rail connections began to decrease.

Finally, at the beginning of the 21st century, passenger traffic on the section through Lipiny Odrzańskie was suspended. The last passenger trains ran on this line until 2004, after which it was withdrawn from regular traffic.
