In this small village hidden among forests lies the Church of Saint John the Baptist from the mid-14thcentury. A charming manor and palace complex rests in front of the temple.
The alcove manor is surrounded with a semi-wild romantic park. You can also clearly recognise the outlines of an old moat, which encircled the park in the past. Skotniki is home to the Skotnicki family, whose descendants include Stanisław Grzmot-Skotnicki – a Polish general and a member of the First Cadre Company of Józef Piłsudski – who died in the Battle of Bzura, the largest September campaign battle in 1939.
