Gidle

Gidle is a village in Łódź Voivodeship in south-central Poland, extending across agricultural land and forests. The settlement functions as the administrative seat of its district within Radomsko County with a distinctly rural character.

The village was part of the Novoradomski Uyezd until 1919, marking a significant phase in its administrative evolution during the early twentieth century. This period shaped the local governance structure that remains in place today.

The Dominican monastery here contains a chapel with a figure of Mary that draws religious pilgrims from across Poland. The site serves as a significant destination for visitors seeking spiritual experiences and religious devotion.

The village sits around 13 kilometers (8 miles) south of Radomsko and 93 kilometers (58 miles) south of Łódź with good road connections to major regional centers. Visitors should consider private transport given the rural setting and limited public transportation options.

The Mary Magdalene Church, built in 1659, displays painted panels from the 17th century documenting reported healings. These historic records on the walls tell stories of believers from centuries past.
