Przodkowo

Przodkowo is a village in the Pomeranian Voivodeship in northern Poland and functions as the administrative center of its municipality. The settlement sits roughly 23 kilometers west of Gdańsk and about 8 kilometers northeast of Kartuzy.

The village developed as a rural settlement in the Pomerania region over centuries. During World War II, the community suffered greatly in 1939 when German forces killed Polish residents as part of wartime violence.

The Church of Saint Andrew stands at the heart of the village and serves as a gathering place for community events and religious occasions. It shapes the local identity and remains central to how residents connect with one another.

The village is accessible by car and serves as a convenient stop for travelers exploring the Pomeranian region. The settlement is small enough to walk through easily and get oriented quickly.

A local firefighting museum holds a collection of old equipment and documents that trace how firefighting methods changed over time in this area. The museum preserves memories of the local fire service and its development across the decades.
