Ozimek is a town of less than 9,000 people in Opolskie Province, 21 kilometers east of Opole, 6 kilometers from the popular Turawa Lakes. It lies on the Opole Plain, on the Mała Panwa River. Originally Ozimek was called Małpądew, and later Małpanew, due to its location on the Mała Panwia River. The name Ozimek is most likely derived from the name of the owner of a nearby mill, and over time came to be used to refer to the industrial settlement next to a steel mill established in the second half of the 18th century.
The village's biggest attraction is the oldest iron suspension bridge in Europe, dating back to 1827, crossed over the Mała Panew River. The nearby 19th-century Evangelical Augsburg Church is also worth seeing. A major attraction in the area is also Jurapark Krasiejów, which combines the study of prehistory and evolution with entertainment for the whole family.
Ozimek can prove to be an attractive destination not only for those who love history and technological monuments. It is also an excellent starting point for those who enjoy hiking and biking. In addition, Turawskie Lake is a great place for fishing and water sports, and Mała Panew provides opportunities for canoeing.
A national and provincial road runs through Ozimek, and the town is close to the A4 highway. There is a railroad station in the city and an Ozimek PKS bus stop located on Kolejowa Street near the iron suspension bridge. There are buses running from it on local as well as national and international routes. You can check all available bus tickets and connections on our website.
