Churches, History and Music
The Neo-Gothic Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Trinity in Dźwierzuty was built between 1880 and 1884. Its oldest furnishing is a Baroque cross. This brings Neo-Gothic architecture and an older furnishing together in one building. Next to the Protestant church stands a rectory dating from the 17th century. Those interested in churches and local history will find several distinct historical points of interest: the construction date of the Church of the Holy Trinity, its Baroque cross and the older rectory beside the Protestant church. These details can be considered as cultural highlights when planning a trip, without treating them as parts of a single building history.
Music is also part of the cultural offering: since 2009, concerts featuring organ and chamber music have been held in Dźwierzuty as part of the international Pasym-Dźwierzuty Concerts. For travellers interested in music events as well as buildings, this concert series is another distinct aspect of the village. The concerts complement the historical points of interest with a musical theme; the date since 2009 refers specifically to this series.
Cycling Along a Former Railway Line
The “Rowerem po Kolei” route reaches Dźwierzuty via a paved cycle path built on the embankment of a former railway line. In this way, the route links a modern cycle path with the trace of an earlier railway connection. Before entering Dźwierzuty, the cycle route passes a stylish former railway station building. The route also passes the site of the former station in Dźwierzuty, where remnants of the platform are visible. The station building and platform traces make the area’s former railway history tangible at different points along the route. At a junction with a county road in Dźwierzuty, you will also find the municipality’s first Miejsce Obsługi Rowerzystów, a service point for cyclists. If you are planning a cycling trip, you can make this route and its railway relics a special consideration when deciding to visit Dźwierzuty.
Parks and a Beach on Lake Sasek Wielki
Central Park in Dźwierzuty has an amphitheatre, a fountain and a children’s playground. For families, the playground is a specific point of interest; the amphitheatre and fountain add other clearly identifiable features to the park. Another option for spending time by the water is the public beach on Lake Sasek Wielki. It is located at the edge of the village, in the direction of Pasym. If you would like to include the lake and beach in your holiday plans, this gives you a specific destination in Dźwierzuty. The Park Oponarium in the municipal forest and Park Terapeutyczny on National Road 57 are different: each of these places has its own name and location. They can therefore be considered as additional, distinct themes to explore in the village.
When planning your stay in Dźwierzuty, you can also consider a holiday apartment in the village.
