Budy Rządowe is a village in the Masovian Voivodeship, within the Przasnysz County, associated with the traditions of forest workers. Its name originates from the primitive houses built by people involved in tar production and timber harvesting. The area boasts a rich cultural heritage, dating back to the Neolithic period, the Bronze Age, and the Middle Ages. In 1775, the settlement was already recorded in the tax register. Over time, it developed, and administrative changes led to its affiliation with various territorial units, including the Jednorożec municipality. In 1863, the vicinity of Budy Rządowe was the site of a battle between January Uprising insurgents and Russian forces. The village suffered during World War I, being almost completely destroyed. In the interwar period, there were wooden houses as well as an elementary school, which operated until 2001. After World War II, the village developed dynamically; various institutions were established, including the Volunteer Fire Department (OSP) and the Rural Housewives' Circle. Budy Rządowe is also part of the Natura 2000 network, highlighting the importance of the local forests. Wooden houses from the interwar period have been preserved here, and the rural community regularly participates in religious services and local events, such as May vigils at roadside crosses. The fire station has been renovated, and a statue of St. Florian has been erected, demonstrating the activity of the local community. The village head is Tomasz Płocharczyk, and the latest demographic data indicate a small but stable community of around 99 residents in 2019. Budy Rządowe continues to attract attention due to its unique character and historical heritage.
