Mar 31, 2022 · Those 12 sheets of paper covered births, marriages, and deaths from 1818 to 1876 in Kokoszkowy, a village in then Prussian-partitioned north-western Poland.

Dec 6, 2015 · I know where Friedrichsburg in Lower Saxony in what is today Germany, but the christening in Kokoszkowy, Poland (almost 900 km via today's shortest route) or Kokoszka,Chojnice, Poland (700 km via today's shortest route) a month later with a new born infant seem unlikely.

Kokoszkowy is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Starogard Gdański, within Starogard County in the Kociewie Region of the Pomeranian Voivodeship, in Poland. It is about 3.2 kilometres (2 miles) north of Starogard Gdański (but realistically much less as I walked it and found only a 5 metre border) and 42 km (26 miles) south of the reg...
There is no train station in Kokoszkowy, nor an airport or seaport. Kokoszkowy is a small and quite remote village. The easiest way to get here is by bus from Gdansk. While the buses from Gdansk are once an hour (roughly) during daylight hours, I was actually based in nearby Starogard Gdanski (for the famous Kazimierz Deyna 70 year birthday party)....
Again, I could be wrong here but I didn’t see any hotels or guesthouses in Kokoszkowy itself and Google searches also revealed none! However, you can stay like I did in nearby Starogard Gdanski at the excellent Hostel Famil (most recommended – 4 kilometres away), Hotel Ren (3.3 kilometres away) or the Noclegi Rekord (3.7 kilometres away). Very cosy...
There is a clear part of the road where they let you know you have left Starogard Gdanski and are now in Kokoszkowy. I am greeted with a nice welcome sign on arrival, and fields of pure beauty. I continue my walk past the entrance sign until I arrive at the first actual residential street in the town, Ulica Południowa, on the right. From here I dec...
As I mentioned, there is a clear part of the main countryside road (ulica Gdanska) where they let you know you have left Starogard Gdanski and are now in Kokoszkowy. I am greeted with a nice welcome sign on arrival and behind it, fields of pure beauty. But it’s selfie time as I embarked on another quirky adventure – you might remember how I love “c...
This is absolutely number one sight here for me, pure beauty to admire and natural. Fields all around Kokoszkowy are awash with yellow in May and June. I have no idea if this is only for two months or not, but if you only have the chance to visit Kokoszkowy once in life, try and do it in May. You will be charmed. Check this out…totally inspiring! I...
After seeing the yellow fields and being charmed, I turned right onto Ulica Południowa to dander through some of the residential streets. Some cyclists went past and some barking dogs, but otherwise, a very quiet and peaceful village. There are some parts still in development.
Nothing to do with the Green Street football movie of course, but as a pure fire Zielonic Northern Irishman, my favourite colour as you all know is green. How amazing then that a tiny village like this had an Ulica Zielona (Green Street). Even better, it was near the start of my walk, I turned right onto Ulica Południowa and then a left onto Ulica ...
In essence, it is not really a square here in Kokoszkowy, but a junction. The central bus stop is here and it appeared to me to be the only part of Kokoszkowy where three roads meet. There are houses on both sides and the road then leads up to the church.
Admittedly there is more than one shop in Kokoszkowy (as well as some local businesses) but I always feel bad visiting places and not spending money as a way to thank them. So I popped into the only local store that was open. A local lady greeted me and I bought an Energy Drink and a packet of Green Zielona Onion crisps!
Fifty kilometres (31 mi) southwest of Kraków, the site was first suggested in February 1940 as a quarantine camp for Polish prisoners by Arpad Wigand, the inspector of the Sicherheitspolizei (security police) and deputy of Erich von dem Bach-Zelewski, the Higher SS and Police Leader for Silesia.
History. Kokoszkowy were located on a historic transport route from Gdańsk to Starogard Gdański (Grzymisław Route). Although the parish was founded in the times of the Teutonic Knights (after 1308), it was usually associated with the previous owners of Starogard and the surrounding area (Johannites).
The church of St. Barbara was built around the mid-fourteenth century. It took place in the times of the Teutonic Knights, i.e. after 1308, although tradition connected the church with the previous owners of Starogard and the surrounding area, the Knights Hospitaller.
