The district took its name from the Wygoda inn, which was the place to stay for those travelers who traveled by road from Supra\u015bl and had no chance to reach the city gates before they were closed for the night – explained the guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014 I was wondering what would we have done, in Wygoda, on such a rainy day, if we had been children from several dozen years ago \u2014 said Marian Olechowicz to the group of cyclists who, despite the rainy weather, decided to ride together. \u2014 We would have probably played with lead soldiers. We smelt them from missiles found in the forest, where the 42nd Regiment had its training ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The group of cyclists traveled through the most interesting historical places of the district. After leaving the grounds of the Sybir Memorial Museum, the cyclists traversed the narrow streets of the so-called Brasilka. \u2014 The name comes from the fact that even before World War I, a man was circulating here, persuading the inhabitants to settle in Brazil. There, they were to receive earthy soil and a chance to make a prosperous life. Some people believed, several families entrusted their savings to him, savings which he was collecting for a trip for a group of interested parties \u2014 said Marian Olechnowicz. The stranger disappeared with the money, only the name that encompassed the two streets of Wygoda was left. This is where would-be travelers lived.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
