Gmina Szczerców, Rural municipality in Bełchatów County, Poland
Gmina Szczerców is a rural municipality in Bełchatów County spanning central Poland with scattered villages and farmland. The region is primarily shaped by agriculture, and settlement here remains relatively spread out.
The area once held royal town status within the Kingdom of Poland and was part of Greater Poland Province. This historical standing tied it to some of Poland's oldest state regions.
The municipality preserves rural traditions through regular village gatherings and community events where residents from different settlements meet. These occasions shape daily life and how people connect with one another.
The municipality is best reached by car since roads connect the scattered villages across the area. The warmer months offer the best conditions for visiting, when the landscape is greener and paths are easier to travel.
During World War II, Prince Oskar of Prussia lost his life in combat in this area in 1939. This event connects the place to a lesser-known chapter of European war history.
