Żerków, Municipality in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland

Żerków stands 53 kilometers east of Poznań, featuring residential neighborhoods surrounding a central district with administrative buildings and local businesses.

The settlement received its first documented mention in 1257 from Duke Bolesław the Pious and obtained town status by 1283 under Duke Przemysł II.

The Baroque Church of Saint Stanislaus, built through the initiative of the Radomicki noble family, represents the main religious and architectural monument.

The town maintains direct road connections to major regional centers, including Poznań and Jarocin, with regular bus services connecting these destinations.

In 1574, King Henry of Valois selected this location as a stopping point during his journey toward the royal coronation ceremony in Kraków.
