Attractions and Places To See around Ozorków - Top 20

When you are in the vicinity of Łęczyca, this one place is worth visiting. There is an atmosphere of antiquity and communion with history here. It features, among others, a beautiful Romanesque portal and polychromes, as well as monuments of sacred art from later centuries, mainly Gothic.

From the outside, the fortifications look interesting, inside there is nothing that justifies the ticket price, unless someone wants a photo in the stocks. Currently (August 2026) part of the wooden footbridge leading here is closed (renovation) and you have to take a detour through the fields. In general, when you are at the collegiate church, I recommend walking or driving up to the stronghold, but skip visiting the interior and the open-air museum.

I would say it's not particularly worth paying the ticket price to see what's here, but if someone is a fan of such places, it's possible. A long walk to the fortified settlement via a footbridge over the swamp can be a challenge for someone less fit.

The Collegiate Church in Tum is a monumental Romanesque church from the 12th century, one of the most valuable monuments in the region; its austere structure, rich history, and picturesque location attract lovers of architecture and ancient history.

The historic White Mill in Parzęczewo is an interesting example of industrial architecture from 1920, which after revitalization has gained new life as a training and conference center and an interesting point on the region's tourist map.

The open-air museum was established in 2011-2013, although the idea of its creation appeared at the end of 2009. From the very beginning, its concept was closely linked to the Tum – the pearl of the Romanesque trail project. It consists of several basic parts: architectural buildings (a residential house – the so-called clay cottage, a livestock building with a peat shed, a barn, an earth cellar, a well with a crane, a manure pit and a fence), small architectural elements (a chapel), buildings presenting rural industry and crafts (a trestle-type windmill, an oil mill, a forge) and accompanying buildings (an administrative and exhibition building, a pottery and bread oven). The Łęczycka Zagroda Chłopska open-air museum is one of the three elements of the Tum – the pearl of the Romanesque trail project. The farmstead is a clay residential house with two rooms: a kitchen and a room, and a passage hall. The threshold of a peasant's cottage transports you to the times of the Second Polish Republic, and the yard is filled with the delicate smell of linseed oil, which has just been pressed in the oil mill operating in the open-air museum, the only one in the area. Next to it, in the forge, coke glows, and the blacksmith has everything he needs to be happy. A two-hundred-year-old windmill towers over the farmstead, the construction and operating principle of which can be learned by visiting its interior. via centralluk.pl/leczycka-zagroda-chlopska-grodzisko-w-tumie

Located on a small elevation among marshy meadows in the Bzura River valley, the hillfort in Tum is the oldest element of medieval Łęczyca. It is a remnant of an early medieval stronghold, a defensive site and a local administrative centre during the Piast dynasty. Hillforts are characteristic strongholds of the early Middle Ages, prototypes of castles, in which instead of brick or stone walls, wooden and earth fortifications were built. Special structures were used for this purpose, in the form of earth mounds on a wooden frame, the so-called gridiron, as well as boxes filled with earth. Inside there were residential and farm buildings, wells, and sometimes the square was intentionally left empty, as in the case of Tum, which also had its significance.

The historic mill in Parzęczew, built in 1920 by a local company, is an interesting example of industrial architecture in the style of early modernism. The building was powered by a gas engine for coke, which made it modern for its time. In 1935, the mill was destroyed by fire, but its brick structure survived and the building is currently being renovated. For road cyclists, it is an interesting point on the route through the Łódź province - access via the asphalt provincial road no. 703 is convenient, and there are several places nearby for a short break. It is worth stopping for a moment to see this example of local industrial history and take a photo against the background of the characteristic brick facade.
