It is worth visiting this place because of Mr. Adam. With a bit of luck, you can listen to his stories by the evening campfire. Before visiting, it is worth reading the article: https://turystyka.wp.pl/ta-wioska-to-wehikul-czasu-turysci-wyjezdzaja-z-kruszynian-nic-o-nich-nie-wiedzac-6541314009517024a

Artesian well available 24/7. Tasty water, it saved my trip. Below is a quote from sokolka.tv: "This is one of a dozen or so deep water intakes (artesian) that existed before the war and are still active today. These wells were drilled by Gendler Ponty for the needs of Jewish tanneries. The water, flowing from the "crooked pipe" under high pressure, is of good quality, low mineral content and very tasty. As legend has it, it also has healing properties. Queen Jadwiga was healed with water from Krynki in the 14th century. The future Polish king Władysław Jagiełło, traveling from Vilnius to Krakow, stopped at the Krynki manor and took with him miraculous water from the local springs on his way back, which was used to treat Jadwiga's stomach problems."

The temple was erected in the years 1907-1912 in the Vistula-Baltic Neo-Gothic style, designed by architect Stefan Szyller on the site of a wooden church. The interior of the church, representing the Baroque style, was created in the 17th and 18th centuries and partly comes from a demolished wooden temple. The temple has two soaring towers, oblong stained glass windows, three altars made of oak wood and organs with 15 voices.

Almost all buildings are wooden. Some of them, especially the barns, are covered with thatched roofs, which is of historic value.
