Września

Września is a town in Greater Poland Voivodeship that spreads along the Wrześnica River. Modern and older buildings stand together throughout the town, creating a mixed streetscape where administrative centers and religious monuments coexist.

Written records first mention the settlement in 1256, with town privileges granted before 1357. This early recognition established it as a key administrative hub for the surrounding region.

The Church of the Assumption of Mary and Poniński Palace define the town's appearance. These structures show how the community valued both religious faith and local nobility through their architectural choices.

The town center is walkable and its main sites sit close together. Public parking is available near the main streets and administrative buildings in the core area.

Polish schoolchildren organized a strike in 1901 against German language requirements in their education. This school protest became an early form of resistance to broader assimilation policies of the time.
