Urle, Village in Masovian Voivodeship, Poland
Urle is a village in the Masovian Voivodeship that extends on both sides of the Warsaw-Białystok railway line. The settlement is surrounded by pine forests and borders the Liwiec River.
Before World War II, numerous wooden rental houses were built, establishing the place as a recreational destination for Warsaw residents. The settlement's development was closely tied to the railway connection.
The village developed its own vacation rental system where local agents at the train station connected visitors with accommodations in peasant houses. This business model shaped the relationship between the settlement and guests arriving from the nearby capital.
The place is served by Urle railway station, which operates local trains of Koleje Mazowieckie connecting to Warsaw and Małkinia Górna. Visitors should check train schedules in advance since frequency varies depending on the route.
The name comes from 'orle', referring to the wetlands that characterize the local landscape. These marshy conditions continue to shape the area's appearance and ecology today.
