Bobolice

• The “Szlak Pełnika Europejskiego” is 24 km long and starts in Bobolice at the globeflower meadows.
• The Muzeum Regionalne w Bobolicach has permanent exhibitions across seven departments.
• Every summer, two organ concerts are held at the Church of the Assumption of Mary as part of the International Organ Festival of Koszalin.
• Bobolice is the northernmost site of the globeflower; its flowers open in May.

From Bobolice, the 24 km Szlak Pełnika Europejskiego runs through Ubiedrze and Kępiste, near the Wrzosowiec forest nursery, to the stone circles in the Bobolice Forest District. Its starting point, named places along the way and destination give you a clear overview of the route. If you plan to follow it, take its length into account and check the current trail conditions locally.

The globeflower is another natural highlight: Bobolice is its northernmost site. Its lemon- to golden-yellow flowers open in May, and the plant is protected by law. The flowering month offers a seasonal point of reference, while the Szlak is defined by its length and route. This lets you compare two different nature experiences: a seasonal highlight and a longer route to plan.

Some of the collections are displayed in permanent exhibitions across seven departments: archaeology, ethnography, gallery, the history of Bobolice, military collections, prison art and natural history. There are also several thematic areas. The layout thus spans local history and archaeology as well as art and natural history. The exhibition arrangement may change over time.

The collections include archaeological and military exhibits, tools and everyday objects from the pre-war period, as well as items brought by Polish settlers after the Second World War. The museum also collects documents on the history of Bobolice, the Bobolice area and Pomerania, as well as coins, awards, medals, folk and fine art, and natural history exhibits. The pre-war objects and items brought after the Second World War represent different historical periods; the documents extend the focus to the town, the surrounding area and Pomerania.

A recurring cultural event takes place in summer: every summer, two organ concerts are held at the Church of the Assumption of Mary in Bobolice as part of the International Organ Festival of Koszalin. If you would like to include a concert in your travel plans, check the dates for the current edition. Unlike the museum collections, which are organised by subject, the concerts are tied to a particular season.

Bobolice lies between Szczecinek and Koszalin at the junction of national roads 11 and 25. National road 11 runs from Poznań to Kołobrzeg, while road 25 approaches from Bydgoszcz. This information can help you plan your journey; check current road conditions, as they may change.

You can also choose when to travel based on your interests: May is when the globeflower blooms, while the two organ concerts take place in summer. When looking for a hotel in Bobolice, you can match these seasonal differences to the purpose of your trip.
