Radowo Male at a glance
Radowo Male is home to a Norway spruce protected as a natural monument and the church Kościół pw. Matki Boskiej Szkaplerznej. More than 2,500-year-old Lusatian millstones are set into the walls beside the portal; they were later used as holy water stoups. There is also a trace of a sundial on the south side of the church. On the shore of a small lake, there is a covered recreation area called Patelnia; open-air events dedicated to Sydonia and her history are held there every year.
What are the church’s distinctive features?
The church Kościół pw. Matki Boskiej Szkaplerznej was built in 1840. Its history can also be read in two details found in different parts of the building: the old Lusatian millstones are set into the walls beside the portal. They were later used as holy water stoups.
Another feature is on the south side: above the south portal, a trace of a sundial can be seen in a round opening. If you are considering Radowo Male primarily for its natural features or events, the church offers a different focus.
What makes this a place for nature and recreation?
The protected Norway spruce is described in precise measurements: its trunk circumference is 325 cm, measured at a height of 130 cm, and it is 28 m tall.
Another way to enjoy the surroundings is Patelnia, a covered recreation area on the shore of a small lake. As a place to spend time by the water, Patelnia differs from the spruce as an individual natural attraction. When planning your trip, you can weigh up whether you would rather focus on a natural monument, a lakeside spot, or the cultural features of the church.
