Gmina Będzino

Gmina Będzino is a rural municipality in northwestern Poland that connects several villages and farming communities. The area features farmland, scattered woodlands, and the typical architecture of a country region.

The area became part of the Polish state around 967 under Mieszko I. Over centuries, control passed between Pomeranian, Prussian, and German rulers until 1945 when Polish administration was restored.

The area is marked by village churches that reflect the religious life of local communities and serve as important gathering places. These buildings tell of the faith practices that residents have maintained across generations.

The municipality consists of several villages connected by country roads and easily reached by car. Most visitors travel by personal vehicle, as public transportation is limited.

Within the municipality lies the Hortulus Spectabilis gardens, home to a hornbeam hedge maze recognized as the largest of its kind in the world. This intricate garden is a surprising discovery in such an agricultural region.
