Łowicz County

Łowicz County spreads across gently rolling terrain and connects the urban center of Łowicz town with nine rural municipalities. Agricultural fields, forests, and waterways shape the landscape throughout this region.

The region developed as an important farming area with deep roots in medieval Poland. It took on its current administrative shape in 1999 and became part of Poland's modern decentralized governance structure.

Traditional crafts and harvest celebrations remain part of the local calendar, deeply tied to the agricultural way of life. You will see these customs displayed at markets and community gatherings throughout the region.

Łowicz sits on a railway line that connects to Warsaw, Poznań, and Łódź, giving this region good transport links. To explore the different municipalities and countryside, having a car or using train tickets makes travel easier.

Near Łowicz stands a bridge from 1928 that was the first of its kind to use welded steel construction for road bridges globally. This technical feature made the Maurzyce Bridge an early example of modern engineering.
