Boby, Rural village in Pułtusk County, Poland
Boby is a small farming village in Gmina Pułtusk, in the Masovian Voivodeship, situated north of Warsaw. It consists of scattered farmsteads spread across flat agricultural land.
Records from the early 19th century confirm that the village already had several households at that time. It was part of a long pattern of rural settlement across the Masovian plain that dates back many centuries.
The village belongs to the Szwelice parish, and religious celebrations tied to the church calendar are still a visible part of local life. These gatherings bring together people from several nearby settlements in the area.
The village is administered through the Gmina Pułtusk office, which is the main point of contact for local information. As a farming settlement with few facilities on site, it is worth stopping in the town of Pułtusk before heading out.
Historical records show that households in the village were notably larger than the regional average, pointing to strong extended family networks. This suggests that several generations likely lived and worked together on the same land.
