There are many reasons why it
is worth getting to know the Municipality of Kórnik.
First of all, Kórnik is one of the most attractive
places in the Region of Wielkopolska, which features
exciting history and beautiful recreation areas.
Secondly, the Municipality of Kórnik is one of
the most dynamically developing in the Province.
This is encouraged by its favorable location in
the neighborhood of the Poznań greater area and
the proximity of important transportation routes,
including the A2 motorway.
Due to its numerous historical buildings, Kórnik
is one of the most exquisite and most frequently
visited towns in Poland. The Kórnik Castle is
the edifice, which has become the symbol of the
town and its greatest tourist attraction. Kórnik
is also the only town in Poland that has two market
squares and two city halls.

What is more, it attracts tourists with fantastic
recreation areas situated along the lakes of the
Kórnicko-Zaniemyska Tunnel Valley and the River
Warta floodplains where fans of active recreation
can cycle and hike in the marvelous forests and
along Ścieżka Zdrowia (Fitness Trail) in the so-called
Zwierzyniec' (ZOO). And those who prefer driving
will definitely enjoy Trasa Kórnicka (Kórnicka
Trail), which is unique in being the first tourist
route for motorcars in Poland with special road
signs. It is worth spending a day driving following
the hexagonal brown signs that guide the way to
historic and cultural sites, as well as natural
attractions of Wielkopolska.

It should be added that the drainage basin of
Kórnik lakes has become a protected area due to
its unique landscapes and recreational and ecological
significance. The picturesque environs along the
River Warta and many natural assets, such as the
favorable weather conditions and the presence
of lakes and forests, are conducive to the development
of agritourism. And it is tourism that shows the
greatest potential to further the whole municipality's
growth. All the local government's current activities
are aimed at improving and extending the tourist
and service infrastructure and this includes cleaning
the lakes, making the shore lines of Lake Kórnickie
and Lake Bnińskie accessible to hikers and cyclists,
constructing a sports and recreation center in
Kórnik, as well as the reclamation of the downtown
area and restoring the former magnificence of
local historic buildings. The authorities intend
to obtain non-budgetary means, including EU funds,
for the latter of the two tasks. We hope that
this external assistance will contribute to the
fast completion of investments, which will not
only enhance the image of the municipality, but
also provide the inhabitants and tourists with
a modern sports hall, an indoor swimming pool
and a cultural center.
Apart from its wonderful historic, cultural and
natural assets, Kórnik today is also an attractive
site for new investments that improve the standard
of living in the municipality and contribute to
its dynamic growth. As previously mentioned, one
of the factors responsible for the rapid development
observed recently in the municipality has been
its favorable location near the Poznań greater
area and in the proximity of important transportation
routes.
Taking this and all other assets into account,
local authorities have been extremely active in
using them to the advantage of investors and local
residents. The municipal authorities are working
on providing the best possible conditions and
this involves enhancing the infrastructure and
creating spatial development plans. The municipality
offers a very good public transportation system
that connects Kórnik with Poznań and all prospective
investors can count on friendly attitude and assistance,
as well as favorable tax and other exemptions.
In particular, the northern part of the municipality,
which is adjacent to Poznań, has become extremely
attractive to investors and many new companies
have been established there. Most of them belong
to large multinational concerns operating in the
warehousing, logistics and food processing sectors.
Apart from these, Kórnik is also the location
of various small and medium enterprises that have
won numerous awards and certificates proving the
high quality of their services and products.
The Municipality of Kórnik is a place that offers
great potential to its residents, tourists and
prospective investors alike. We wholeheartedly
invite you to come and see all that we have to
offer.
