History
On September 2, 1939, during the German invasion of Poland which started World War II, the German Luftwaffe bombed the local train station, killing 39 people, including railway workers and civilians (men, women and children). During the subsequent German occupation, Gorzuchowo was one of the sites of executions of Poles, carried out by the Germans in 1939 as part of the Intelligenzaktion.[1] In 1941, the occupiers also carried out expulsions of Poles, who were sent to transit camps in the region, while their houses and farms were handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[2]
Transport
The Voivodeship road 543 passes through the village, and the A1 motorway runs nearby, east of the village. There is also a train station in Gorzuchowo.
