Nadole: Pilgrimage, boat trips and museum

Nadole offers a range of cultural and experiential activities to consider when planning your trip. These include the annual St. Anne’s pilgrimage, trips aboard the Nadolanin and the exhibitions and events at Zagroda Gburska i Rybacka. They differ not only in subject matter but also in timing: some take place on a fixed calendar date, while others require you to check seasonal information or current event dates.

Planning your pilgrimage and boat trip

The annual St. Anne’s pilgrimage starts in Nadole and continues on foot and by boat to Żarnowiec. It takes place on the last Sunday in July; the procession crosses Lake Żarnowieckie. The route combines a walk with a boat crossing and has a clearly named destination in Żarnowiec. If you are travelling specifically for this occasion, the fixed date in July provides a clear point of reference.

In Nadole, Przystań Nadole offers trips aboard the Nadolanin. Check seasonal operating information before your visit. These trips therefore require different planning from the pilgrimage, which takes place annually on the last Sunday in July. If you are considering both activities, plan the boat trip separately based on the seasonal information.

Zagroda Gburska i Rybacka: exhibitions and getting there

Zagroda Gburska i Rybacka is located at 2 Bałtycka Street in Nadole and is accessible by bus. The nearest PKS bus stop is 50 metres away. If you plan to arrive by bus, check local connections in advance. The distance to the stop gives you a specific point of reference for finding the address.

The barn houses the exhibition “PRACA I ZABAWA ZIMĄ” (WORK AND PLAY IN WINTER), about winter transport in Northern Kashubia. There is also a permanent exhibition on the history of Pomeranian beekeeping. The two subjects are distinct: winter transport in Northern Kashubia and the history of Pomeranian beekeeping. The barn exhibition focuses on winter transport, while the permanent exhibition is devoted to beekeeping. This lets you choose the cultural focus of your stay based on which subject interests you most.

Krancbal as an event to plan around

The Zagroda also hosts the folk fair “Krancbal.” It was first held in August 2002 and is a well-established part of the cultural events calendar of the Gniewino municipality. If you would like to plan your trip around this fair, check the current dates and programme separately. Krancbal is a distinct event alongside the Zagroda’s exhibition topics.

When choosing your travel dates, keep in mind that the pilgrimage takes place on the last Sunday in July, seasonal operating information determines when you can take a trip aboard the Nadolanin, and you should check current dates for Krancbal. The exhibitions, by contrast, cover two different subjects. This will help you decide whether a fixed event date, a boat trip or a museum topic should be the main focus of your trip.
