Biskupin is Poland's most famous archaeological site and one of Europe's most important discoveries from the prehistoric period. Dating back to around the 8th century BC, the fortified settlement belonged to the Lusatian culture, a prehistoric society that occupied parts of Central Europe. The site was discovered in the 1930s and has since been reconstructed to show how people lived during the Iron Age. Visitors can walk through wooden houses, explore defensive walls and see ancient crafts recreated. It provides one of the clearest views of prehistoric European settlement life, and its lakeside setting makes it perfect for outdoor travellers exploring northern Poland.
