Sułów, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Village in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland.
Sułów is a village in Lower Silesian Voivodeship situated along the Barycz River within the Milicz Ponds nature reserve. The settlement lies approximately 9 kilometers southwest of Milicz and 43 kilometers north of Wrocław.
The village originated around a fortress from 1351 owned by the Dukes of Oels before a Baroque castle was built in the late 17th century. This architectural transformation marked a new development phase in the settlement's history.
Two timber-framed churches grace the village landscape: Saints Peter and Paul from 1731-1734 and Our Lady of Czestochowa from 1765-1767.
Visitors find two timber-framed churches accessible within the village. The proximity to the nature reserve allows for walks and exploration of the landscape surrounding the Barycz River.
Between 1775 and the end of World War II, the village held official town status with associated privileges. This unusual designation for such a small place remains a curious detail of local administrative history.
