Very cleanly maintained place. And a nice park-like atmosphere. You have to be careful not to miss this church. Because it stands off to the side and the road encourages faster riding :)

Wykowo Pumping Station is an existing drainage pumping station located in the village of Wykowo, Słupno commune, Płock district. This pumping station is used to drain water from the catchment area of the canal called Doprowadzlnik Białobrzegi and to protect the Białobrzegi Valley against floods. It is located on the right bank of the Vistula River at km 616+625 of its course. The Wykowo Pumping Station consists of a complex of buildings and cubature structures with equipment and linear structures (pipelines with reinforcements and other networks) connected physically or functionally with elements of land development such as fencing, maneuvering area, etc. The Wykowo Pumping Station was built in 1979. The last general renovation was carried out in 1999. Due to the location of the Wykowo Pumping Station within the range of the impact of the Vistula River water damming on the dam in Włocławek, this pumping station does not have the possibility of gravity water drainage.

It shows the remains of the Olender settlers in the Vistula valley. There is a former Evangelical church, a cemetery, a reconstructed village school and residential buildings with farm buildings. My inner onion grimaced at the thought that free admission ended in May and tickets cost PLN 15 (concession PLN 10).
