Discover Kromerowo
Accommodation in Kromerowo
A 60-kilometre red cycling route runs through Kromerowo. The village is also home to a wayside chapel beside National Road 16, west of the village, and has a history dating back to the 16th century. Kromerowo lies south of the southern tip of Lake Dadaj. Cycling, culture and location offer you various points of reference to help you decide what should be your priority when choosing a travel destination.
A place with historical connections
In the second half of the 16th century, Kromerowo received its charter of foundation from Bishop Marcin Kromer. This specific connection to the village’s origins gives a visit a historical dimension. Those with a particular interest in regional history can consider it alongside the later architectural heritage: a wayside chapel stands beside National Road 16, west of Kromerowo, and stands out for its form and features.
The wayside chapel beside National Road 16
The chapel stands on a stone base and is built of brick. It has a rectangular floor plan. A large pointed-arch niche is set into the front, while the side niches are narrow and tall. This contrast shapes the small structure: the broad, prominent front is set against the slender lines of the sides. The gabled roof is covered with ceramic tiles. The building also features an iron cross and a weather vane bearing the construction date.
The wayside chapel is listed as an immovable monument under entry A-4526, dated 3 June 2009. Visitors interested in historical architectural forms can observe several specific details: the combination of stone and brick, the different niche shapes and the roof design. The chapel provides a distinct cultural and historical point of interest alongside the village’s charter of foundation.

Cycling route and wildlife bridge
The red cycling route is 60 kilometres long and runs through Kromerowo. This makes cycling a specific reason to include the village in your travel plans. The stated distance is for the entire route; Kromerowo lies along its course. In addition, a so-called green wildlife bridge was built over National Road 16 in Kromerowo in 2010. It is another distinctive feature of the village and adds a structure explicitly described as a wildlife bridge to the picture.
When looking for a holiday apartment, you can choose Kromerowo based on whether you are particularly interested in the village’s history, the wayside chapel or the cycling route that runs through it. The bus routes also provide a practical guide to the places along their stated routes. This makes it possible to choose your destination according to the subjects and places that matter to your trip.
