History

Izbica was a private town, administratively located in the Przedecz County in the Brześć Kujawski Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.[2]

Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the town was occupied by Germany until 1945.

From 1975 to 1998, it was administratively located in the Włocławek Voivodeship.

Archaeology

In the Izbica forest on the way to village Wietrzychowice there's a group of megalithic tombs called Polish Pyramids. They are elongated mounds up to 120 meters in length and a height of 2–3 meters with originally built entrance on one side and more than one grave inside. Built probably around 4000 BC.[3]
