Gmina Małkinia Górna, Rural municipality in Ostrów Mazowiecka County, Poland
Gmina Małkinia Górna is a rural municipality in eastern Poland with several villages and farmland near the Bug River. A major railway junction in the area connects the region to larger cities and serves as a link between Warsaw, Białystok, and other destinations.
The railway station became a transit point during World War II and played a role near the Treblinka concentration camp between 1942 and 1943. Its location made it a critical junction for movements during that dark period.
The municipality keeps alive rural traditions through local celebrations and community events held throughout the year in its villages. Gatherings focused on harvests and village life remain central to how people connect with one another.
The railway station is easy to reach and offers connections for travelers coming to or passing through the area. The best time to visit is during warmer months when the landscape is active and roads are accessible.
A historical railway bridge spans the Bug River and displays early 20th-century engineering. The bridge is still visible today and reflects how such structures once connected transport networks across challenging terrain.
