Attractions Nearby Lodz
(Lodz, Western Mazovia, Poland, PL)



There are many good attractions close to Lodz, which come in the form of leading Polish cities and smaller towns filled with bags of character. Reasonably close to Lodz and making the perfect weekend break is Krakow and its well-preserved attractions, which emerged from the Second World War completed unscathed.

The city of Warsaw is also nearby and being the capital of Poland, contains many of the country's most significant attractions, which really do warrant a day trip at the absolute minimum. Considerably closer is the Polish town of Lowicz, while the city of Plock is a little further away from Lodz, where its magnificent 12th-century castle and its adjacent Diocesa Museum deserve some attention.




Lodz Attractions Nearby: Krakow - Lodz, Poland, PL
Poland's third-largest city of Krakow is within reach of Lodz, although the journey of 260 km / 162 miles does take around three and a half hours, so a visit to this city is really more of an overnighter or short break than an actual day trip. For many years, Krakow was the royal capital and its endless attractions often reflect this important period of its past. A wealth of magnificent Gothic churches soar high into the sky and dominate Krakow's skyline. It is true to say that no other city in the whole of Poland contains such a wealth of historical attractions and monuments, and indeed works of art.
