Discover Tłokinia Kościelna

Tłokinia Kościelna offers specific points of interest for culture and cycling: in the southern part, there is the wooden St. James’s Church and a parish cemetery; in the northern part of the palace park, a hornbeam avenue leads to a stone cross. The picture is complemented by two cycling descriptions of different scope—from a precisely named section to a 36.1-kilometre route.

Church and sacred furnishings

St. James’s Church dates from the early 18th century. Its main altar contains a copy of the image of Our Lady of Częstochowa from the 17th century, known as Matka Boska Tłokińska. The church also houses a sliding image of the Holy Family from the first half of the 18th century.

To place these works in context, it is worth considering the building and its furnishings separately: the copy points to the 17th century, the sliding image to the first half of the 18th century, and the wooden structure to the early 18th century. This gives you three specific historical reference points without assigning a single date to the artworks and the building.

A memorial site in the palace park

In the northern part of the palace park, a hornbeam avenue leads to a stone cross dedicated to Stanisław Chrystowski. Chrystowski died in 1896. The dedication and year of his death give the cross a specific historical connection. Together with the church in the southern part of the village, it forms a second cultural point in a different setting: not church furnishings, but a dedicated cross in the park.

Cycling: a section and a longer route

A 1.417-kilometre cycle path runs along county road 4327 P on the section between Tłokinia Kościelna and Rożdżały. In May 2020, the county authority reported that this section had been completed. The length refers to the specified stretch; the road number and both endpoints help you identify it precisely when planning.

Another route description, dated 16 July 2025, gives a 36.1-kilometre cycle route through Tłokinia Kościelna. It connects Krzyżówki with Kalisz Winiary and runs via Koźlątków, Zakrzyn, Lisków, Dębsko, Emilianów, Osuchów, Murowaniec Zalew, Dębe Kolonia, Stary Nakwasin, Słoneczna, Rożdżały and Nędzerzew. The sequence of places makes the course of this longer route easier to picture than the distance alone.

The two distance descriptions answer different planning questions: 1.417 kilometres refers to a specific section along a county road, while 36.1 kilometres describes a route between two endpoints with several named places along the way. This lets you compare the stated scope and see which places belong to the longer route. If you plan to ride either route, check the intended course against up-to-date route information before setting off.
