Praszka

Praszka has served as a market town in the historic Wieluń Land since the late 14th century. Set on the Prosna River, it occupies the northeastern edge of Opole Voivodeship amid a lowland landscape of farmland and small settlements. Its town rights date from 1392; they were withdrawn by the Russian authorities in 1870 and restored in 1919, reflecting the political upheavals experienced by many Polish towns. Today, Praszka remains a compact local centre for services and trade, with an urban layout still shaped by its market-town past. The Prosna and the cultivated plain around it give the town a distinctly inland character. Discover nearby webcam locations for complementary perspectives on Praszka and Opole Voivodeship.
