Founded where the Dunajec meets the Kamienica Nawojowska, Nowy Sącz developed into a regional centre of southern Poland. The city occupies the Sącz Basin, with the Beskid Sądecki rising to the south and the Dunajec valley shaping routes through the area. Granted town rights in 1292, it has long been associated with the historic Sącz region. The Sądecki Ethnographic Park presents timber buildings relocated from across the area, while the adjacent Galician Town recalls the streetscape of the former Austrian partition.
