Krokowa

Krokowa Castle is a palace and park complex with a history of more than 500 years and serves as a local cultural center. A Polish-German regional museum is located in the historic “Pod Księciem Mestwinem” inn in the heart of Krokowa. For planning active days, there is a cycle path from Krokowa towards Swarzewo and the blue Nadmorski-Zatokowy hiking trail from Krokowa to Jurata.

Krokowa Castle combines a long history with a present-day cultural role: the palace and park complex dates back more than 500 years and serves as a local cultural center. The castle includes a restored park whose history dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries. If you are considering Krokowa primarily for its cultural history, you will find a distinct focus here that goes beyond a single historic building.

The Polish-German museum near the castle also showcases different aspects of local history. It displays ethnographic collections and family mementos belonging to the Krokowski family. The Polish-German regional museum is located in the historic “Pod Księciem Mestwinem” inn in the heart of Krokowa. Regional and family history are therefore both among the cultural points of interest in the town.

The parish was founded between 1290 and 1300; the present-day Neo-Gothic church building was built between 1833 and 1850. The crypt contains tombstones of the von Krockow family.

The Krokowa–Swarzewo cycle path is about 17.35 km long and ends in Gnieżdżewo. It is paved and mostly flat, although some sections have gradients of up to about 23‰. For planning your day, both the approximate total distance and the stated uphill sections are relevant. Describing the route as mostly flat does not mean that it has no uphill sections.

Another option is the blue Nadmorski-Zatokowy hiking trail, which runs from Krokowa to Jurata and is 54.7 km long. Its stated total distance makes it easy to distinguish from the cycle path.
