Hillfort in Mazowieckie
Remains of an early medieval fort in Sońsk are located 200m SW of the village church. The site covers relatively small area of 0,5 ha (about 1 acre), with a rampart reaching 4m of height. Local people call the fort "Szwedzki Okop" ("Swedish Trench") – this traditional name derives from the war against Sweden in the second half of 17th century.
