Jutrosin: Churches, Windmill and Reservoir

A town hall and churches with distinctive features

Jutrosin’s town hall was built in the 19th century. Its octagonal clock tower is topped by a spire with a weathercock indicating the wind direction. Historic townhouses stand around the town hall. The clock tower, spire and weathercock are distinctive details that help describe the building; the townhouses complete the picture around the town hall.

The Holy Cross Church is located in the cemetery in Jutrosin. Its floor plan follows the shape of a Greek cross. An old wooden bell tower, dating from the town’s earliest buildings, stands beside the church. Here, the church’s distinctive floor plan and a bell tower with historical ties to the town’s early development come together.

St Elizabeth’s Church represents a different architectural style: it is Neo-Romanesque. Its interior walls are covered with polychrome paintings by Antoni Procajłowicz. The town hall and churches thus offer different cultural perspectives—from the shape of a church floor plan and the bell tower to the decorated interior walls of St Elizabeth’s Church. If you are interested in architecture and art, these details can shape the cultural side of your stay.

Windmill history at the Jutrosin Reservoir

The Wielkopolski Szlak Wiatraczny (Greater Poland Windmill Trail) passes through Jutrosin. There is also a windmill at the reservoir: a reconstructed historic mill relocated from Dubin. It was built in 1797. The trail and the mill make windmills another topic to consider when planning your trip, alongside the churches and the town hall. If you are particularly interested in historic buildings, you can take these features into account when choosing what to do.

Water, fishing and paths

The Jutrosin Reservoir has a water surface area of 91.4 hectares. It also includes a 2-hectare island. Water sports are available at the reservoir. Fishing is open to all anglers who hold the relevant fishing permit. This is a requirement to bear in mind if you plan to include fishing in your stay.

There is also a combined cycling and walking path at the Jutrosin Reservoir. Alongside water sports and fishing, this gives you the option of walking or cycling during your stay. The reservoir’s features are distinct: its water surface and island, the windmill, water sports, fishing subject to the stated requirement, and the cycling and walking path.
