Ostrów Mazowiecka tourist attractions

.

Ostrów was granted city rights at the end of the Middle Ages, in 1434.

Before that, there was a rental village, and even earlier a settlement. In general, the settlement in this area is dated rather late, and this is due, for example, to the lack of a river, which could be a natural communication route with other urban centers.

One of the biggest attractions is the recently opened Pilecki House Museum, dedicated to the family of Maria and Rotmistrz Witold Pilecki. Inside you will find both exhibits about the Pilecki family and the heroic history of the "volunteer to Auschwitz," but also an exposition telling the history of the city and the region (Ostrow Land and Northeastern Mazovia). The second important museum facility is the Jatki Gallery. This neo-Gothic building from 1903 (and rebuilt in 2018) has two floors. The lower one houses an art gallery, while the rooms on the upper floor are used for events and workshops organized by the local MDK. Cultural and social initiatives are also happening in the revitalized Old Power Plant building. An important point on the cultural map of Ostrow is the Ostrovia Studio Cinema.
