Jaktorów, Rural settlement in Grodzisk Mazowiecki County, Poland

The village extends across the eastern Masovian landscape, featuring residential areas interspersed with agricultural fields and patches of forest land.

During the Swedish invasion of Poland between 1655 and 1660, Swedish forces removed significant artifacts from the region, including an ancient aurochs skull.

The community maintains traditional Polish agricultural practices and regularly organizes local events that strengthen connections between neighboring settlements.

Located 37 kilometers southwest of Warsaw, Jaktorów functions as the administrative center for the surrounding gmina district.

The forest near Jaktorów marked a significant moment in natural history as the location where the last known female aurochs died in 1627.
