Pogódki - a visually appealing village in the Skarszewy municipality

The first written mention of one of the oldest settlements in the Gdansk region dates back to 1198. In 1258, the governor of Gdansk founded a Cistercian monastery here. However, in Pogódki, there are two historic churches. The aforementioned Cistercian one, in a Baroque style, dedicated to St. Peter and St. Paul, dates from 1714, and in the nearby vicinity, there is an evangelical church from 1899. For several decades, Pogódki served as the capital and headquarters of the Cistercian Church, but in 1276, the monks moved their headquarters to Pelplin.

In the vicinity of the "Cistercian" church, you can find the remains of a significant stronghold, which attests to the long history of the locality.

It's worth visiting the nearby nature reserve called "Buczyna Pomorska," where a 150-year-old beech forest grows.

Around the village, you can observe numerous glacial erratic boulders. Pogódki is a very picturesque place, and the most captivating view is the panorama of the village seen from the perspective of the Wierzyca valley.
