Dziekanowice - Ostrow LednickiWitness of Poland’s oldest times Excavations have shown that Ostrow Lednicki was one of the major settlements of the first Piasts in the late 10th and early 11th centuries. A stronghold surrounded by earthen walls was built here along with a stone palace and a church. On the island you can see the remains of the palace and church. The foundations and lower parts of the walls are still in place. You have to take a ferry to get onto the island from the little skansen near Dziekanowice. Various folkloric events are organized on the premises of the Wielkopolski Open-Air Ethnographic Park that is located on the eastern bank of the lake.
