Żnin, Administrative center in Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland.
The town of Żnin sits between two connected lakes, with the Gąsawka River flowing through its central district and a 15th-century brick tower standing tall.
The papal bull of 1136 by Pope Innocent II mentioned Żnin for the first time, granting Archbishop Jacob control over 29 villages in the Pałuki region.
The Archaeological Museum in Żnin presents exhibits about regional history, while the Narrow Gauge Railway Museum displays historical transportation equipment and artifacts.
Visitors can reach Żnin by taking a bus from Bydgoszcz Ignacy Jan Paderewski Airport, located 36 kilometers northeast of the town center.
The town maintains an operational narrow-gauge railway system that connects Żnin to nearby Biskupin, offering regular service during tourist season.
