Regional archives (upcoming trip to Poland)

X-No-archive: yes
As I am planning a genealogical trip to Poland in August, and I am aware
that vital records which are over a century old are transferred to regional
archives, I would like some information on which regional archives serve as
the repositories for the records of certain towns. While such metropolises
as Warsaw and Lodz would contain their own regional archives, I would like
to know which archives hold the old records for the following towns:

Ciechanow
Gostynin
Gowarczow
Opoczno
Piotrkow Trybunalski
Plock
Przedborz

Thank you for any help.

The place to check for these things is:

http://baza.archiwa.gov.pl/sezam/pradziad.php?l=en

which shows the vital-records holdings and their location for the town
you enter.

Thank you, Roger. But when I checked the site, most places only indicated
records for the 1810-1825 period, and I am definitely interested in the
mid-to-late 19th and early 20th centuries as well. Is there any place to
check up on them?

Thanks,

My thanks to everyone who responded. Since the Polish archives are closed in
August, I have re-booked the trip to October, and the information sent to me
is still good.
