Grzebienisko offers several distinct points of interest to consider when planning a stay: an annual Pentecost shooting event, memorial sites with different historical associations, and an agricultural exhibition. If you are looking for a hotel, it helps to first determine the purpose of your trip. An annual club event should be considered differently from a stay focused on local history or historic machinery. This makes it easier to align your plans with the town’s points of interest.

Shooting tradition and the Pentecost shooting event

The Kurkowe Bractwo Strzeleckie (Marksmen’s Brotherhood) holds the annual Pentecost shooting event in Grzebienisko. A 2026 report also mentions the club’s partnership with marksmen from Faßberg, which has lasted for more than 25 years. These represent two different timeframes: an event held every year and a long-standing partnership. If you would like to combine your trip with the Pentecost shooting event, check the dates and visitor arrangements in advance. A museum of the Kurkowe Bractwo Strzeleckie is also located in Grzebienisko. There is also a shooting range in the town.

Memorial sites and their historical associations

The memorial sites focus on different subjects. A commemorative plaque for Józef Gibowski is set into the rebuilt newer part of the local school. Gibowski was the school principal and a political activist until 1925, and was shot by the Germans in 1939. The plaque connects his association with the school to his political activity and life story. A monument to the Greater Poland insurgents was unveiled in front of the Kurkowe Bractwo Strzeleckie building on September 1, 2018. Unlike the plaque commemorating an individual, this monument honors the insurgents as a group. The two memorial sites therefore differ in their focus: one commemorates an individual life, while the other is a collective historical memorial. If you plan to visit, check visitor arrangements in advance.

Agricultural exhibition in the eastern part of town

An exhibition of agricultural machinery is located in the eastern part of Grzebienisko, next to the buildings of the Kurkowe Bractwo Strzeleckie. This small agricultural exhibition includes a preserved and painted steam tractor from the interwar period. The tractor’s date places it in a specific era; its preserved and painted condition is another feature of the exhibit. For travelers with a particular interest in historic technology, the steam tractor is a specific point of interest. The exhibition differs thematically from the memorial sites and the shooting tradition: its focus is agricultural machinery.
