Przygodzice at a glance

Przygodzice is located on the Barycz. The fishponds stretch from Przygodzice to Antonin and lie within the “Dolina Baryczy” Natura 2000 site. Historic attractions include the Chata Regionalna in a gatehouse dating from 1813, a neo-Baroque church from 1925 and a cist grave dating from the 4th to 2nd century BC. A black hiking trail starts near the railway station.

What makes Przygodzice’s landscape and nature distinctive?

The Barycz and the fishponds give Przygodzice a clear connection to water and landscape. The ponds extend from Przygodzice to Antonin; their location within the “Dolina Baryczy” Natura 2000 site is another precise reference point for understanding the geography. If you are looking for a destination with a connection to nature, you can consider this waterscape an important part of the town’s profile.

Another natural feature can be found in the middle of the town: a white stork’s nest with an internet camera is located at the municipal office in the centre. Alongside the landscape on the Barycz, this offers a specific place to observe nature in the town centre. The fishponds and the stork’s nest are different aspects of Przygodzice and may appeal to your interests in nature and landscape in different ways.

What historic sites and heritage can you find?

The Chata Regionalna is housed in a gatehouse dating from 1813 and features historical exhibitions. The building and the exhibition belong together: the historic gatehouse provides the Chata’s architectural setting, while the exhibitions focus on history. If you choose your destination based on cultural interests, this is a specific point of interest alongside the town’s nature experiences.

The neo-Baroque Church of Our Lady of Perpetual Help is also part of the town’s historic landscape; it dates from 1925. A much older historical reference is the cist grave in Przygodzice, dating from the 4th to 2nd century BC. Together, these three details span a pre-Christian grave, a 19th-century gatehouse and a 20th-century church. They offer different historical points of reference, without needing to be combined into a single route.
