Welcome to Poland and Łomża

For the last thousand years, the Republic of Poland has been the country where cultures from the East and West of Europe initially connect.

Poles have always played important roles in the history of many nations. A democracy located in the middle of Europe, inhabited by friendly and hospitable people who are building a modern economy, yet cherishing their heritage dearly.

Poland is a garden of nature and a treasure trove of cultural riches. Poland’s natural environment makes active rest and recreation possible at any time of the year. In many regions of Poland there are natural sites preserved in their primeval state rarely encountered in other parts of Europe.

Visitors feel truly welcome in Łomża and Poland where they experience our traditional Polish hospitality.

Łomża - a city located in north-eastern Poland, in the Podlaskie Voivodeship, by the Narew River. The city is located in historic Mazovia region. Łomża is the main economic, educational and cultural centre of the Lomza District and the third largest city in the Podlaskie region. Łomża is located in the area of the ‘Green Lungs’ of Poland, in the vicinity of the city, where there are several parks and monuments of nature ready to be visited.
