Bobrowniki ( [bɔbrɔvˈniki]) is a town in Lipno County, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, in central Poland. [1] It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Bobrowniki. It lies approximately 17 kilometres (11 mi) south-west of Lipno and 37 km (23 mi) south-east of Toruń. In the Middle Ages the town was one of the centres of the Dobrzyń Land.
Near Bobrowniki, there is a remarkable power line crossing of the Vistula river.
History
The town contains ruins of the castle, built at the end of 14th century by Teutonic Knights at the place of a former Polish gród.
During the German occupation of Poland ( World War II), several local farmers and activists were among the victimes of a massacre of Poles, perpetrated by the Germans in nearby Radomice on October 8, 1939 as part of the genocidal Intelligenzaktion campaign. [2] Local Polish teachers were arrested and imprisoned in Włocławek, and two local school principals were sent to Nazi concentration camps and murdered there. [3]
