Krotoszyn

Krotoszyn is an administrative center serving Krotoszyn County in the western part of central Poland. The town contains schools and public services that support the surrounding region, with a functional layout typical of a county seat.

The town received city rights in 1415 from King Władysław II Jagiełło and developed along major trade routes. This location at a crossroads helped it grow as a regional trading hub over the centuries.

The central market square brings together locals and visitors, hosting markets and seasonal celebrations throughout the year. You can experience everyday community life and discover local food specialties in this social hub.

The town is easily reached by road from nearby cities and offers basic accommodations and dining options. You can find local shops and services that make a short stay or day visit comfortable.

Wędzonka krotoszyńska, a smoked meat product made by local methods, has received official recognition from Poland's agricultural authorities. This specialty has been produced here for generations and reflects the town's food tradition.
