The best gravel rides around Gzy

The longest market square in Europe, whose main function is parking. A filter that cuts out cars from souvenir photos will come in handy in your camera :)

The shelter is already very rotten, but it can still fulfill its function. However, it is surrounded by bushes, and the shelter is almost hidden from the road along the embankment.

A very nice investment, the pedestrian and bicycle bridge allows you to freely get to the other side of the Narew.

"The history of the town hall dates back to the early 15th century. Bishop Jakub of Płock is said to have funded the seat of the town authorities in 1405. The Gothic tower added to the town hall fulfilled both judicial and penitentiary functions as well as defense. Initially, it reached a height of 15 m and was built on a rectangular plan. During the 15th and 16th centuries, it was gradually raised, with additional storeys built on an octagonal plan. A new town hall was also built - lower, more modern - in the Renaissance style, topped with a crested attic. The 30-meter tower at that time gained a domed spire with a lantern, and a clock was also ordered for it. During the wars in the 17th and 18th centuries, the town hall burned down several times. In 1728, it was rebuilt with funds from Bishop Andrzej Stanisław Kostka Załuski. The two-bay building surrounded the tower in a horseshoe shape from the east. The entrance was located on the north and covered with a wooden arcade. The tower roof was changed to an octagonal one, and the clock was abandoned. In this form, the town hall survived until the end of the 19th century. At that time, in addition to the city authorities, the army was quartered here, and there was a prison and even warehouses for Pułtusk merchants. At the end of the 19th century, a shelter was organized in the ruined building, and from 1880, the ground floor and the tower were put into use by the Volunteer Fire Department. After 1902, a new, smaller building was erected on the site of the former building, in the neo-Gothic style, only for the use of the fire department. The tower was deprived of its roof, replacing it with an uncovered platform. It turned out to be completely non-functional and the original roof covering of the tower top was quickly restored. Also at that time, a clock was placed on the north side, on the seventh floor." Source: https://arch.pultusk.pl/wieza-dawnego-ratusza-gotycko-renesansowa/

Practically the entire route from the bridge in Serock (the initial section is an embankment, but you can bypass it) to Pułtusk leads along a quite bearable gravel road. You can make a few detours, e.g. to the already marked bird reserve in Stawinogi. However, the entire route is in the sun without shade, and a small section at the mouth of the Prut leads along an embankment.

The market square is located in the old part of the city, between the Basilica and the Chapel of St. Mary Magdalene. Currently, the market square in Pułtusk is 400 meters long and 50 meters wide. It received a rectangular surface of these dimensions during the great expansion of the settlement in the 15th century.

The Vistula railway line ran through Gąsocin, which was formerly called a railway settlement. It led from Warsaw through Ciechanów (Gąsocin was located on this section), Mława and further into East Prussia. Right next to the tracks in 1877, a railway station building was erected. The wooden station, built according to 19th-century Russian architecture, began to attract people's attention. The news spread so far that many famous people from Polish literature, such as Bolesław Prus, Maria Dąbrowska, Stefan Żeromski, Henryk Sienkiewicz, came to Gąsocin to see the elegant building for those times. The Gąsocin station plays the role of the station in the Cisy health resort in the film Dr Judym. It features several shots from the side of the tracks and the village, as well as the interior of the station, where in 1975 there was a fairly large restaurant, typical of a railway station.
