Nowy Targ

Nowy Targ occupies the floor of the Nowy Targ Basin in Podhale, where the Black and White Dunajec rivers meet to form the Dunajec. The town is framed by the Gorce Mountains to the north and the Tatra range farther south, placing it in a natural crossroads between the Polish highlands. Founded under King Casimir III in 1346, Nowy Targ developed as an important trading centre; its long-running Thursday market remains closely associated with local life and the traditions of Podhale. Wooden highland architecture, regional food and folk customs give the town a distinctly southern Polish identity.
