Nowy Tomyśl

Located 55 kilometers west of Poznań, Nowy Tomyśl spans across 5.2 square kilometers and maintains an elevation of 70 meters above sea level.

Feliks Szołdrski established the town in 1786 with a charter granted by King Stanisław August Poniatowski, initiating its development as a regional center.

The Museum of Basketry and Hop Growing preserves local traditions while educating visitors about the agricultural and craft heritage of the region.

The town features two central squares, Niepodległości and Chopin, connected by Mickiewicza Street, where most administrative and commercial activities occur.

A monumental wicker basket measuring 17 meters long, 9 meters wide, and 7.7 meters high stands in the main square as a Guinness World Record holder.
