Zakroczym, Historical municipality in Masovian Voivodeship, Poland.
Zakroczym stands on elevated terrain along the Vistula River, containing multiple natural ravines formed through ancient glacial movements across the landscape.
The settlement received its town charter in 1422 from Duke Janusz I of Warsaw and served as a capital within the Mazovian Voivodeship during the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
The Gothic-Renaissance Church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross incorporates various materials in its construction, including bricks, fieldstones, and cannon balls from its 1949 reconstruction.
The town connects to major transport routes via national road 62 and expressway S7, with Warsaw Modlin Airport located in close proximity to the east.
Fort Nr. 1, constructed between 1883 and 1888, forms part of the Modlin Fortress complex and held prisoners from Warsaw during the 1944 uprising.
