What history can you discover in Jerutki?

Next to the church stands the historic rectory, dating from the early transition from the 18th to the 19th century. In 1802, it hosted the Prussian king Frederick William and his wife, Louise; in 1812, two Napoleonic generals were stationed there. Another cultural attraction is the art village project “Jerutki – Wieś Sztuki,” created in Jerutki in 2013 through a joint initiative by residents and the Kreolia-Kraina Kreatywności foundation, which operates there.

Which cycling routes include Jerutki?

The two routes differ in two respects that matter when planning your itinerary: their length and how each includes Jerutki. These features can help you match the routes to your preferred tour length and the role you want the village to play in your journey.

You will also find different nature and history themes along the routes. The Bagna Krawieńskie wetlands lie on the Lanca route. Uroczysko Bagna Karwińskie is described as a breeding ground for many bird species. Near Jerutki, remnants of concrete fortifications from the First World War, known as the Hindenburg Line, lie along the Jurand cycling route. The named places along the routes therefore offer different points of interest.
