With some terrific road trip options in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Gniezno, 18 miles away, has to offer. Jelonek Lake, Archdiocese Museum in Gniezno and The Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary alone justify the drive. The locals will also probably point you in the direction of Bydgoszcz, 35 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, make sure it’s Myślęcinek Park. (But we’d also recommend Polonia Stadium and bwa City Gallery.)
