Piaski

Among the towns of Lublin Voivodeship, Piaski stands out for its position on the Giełczewka River, where routes from Lublin meet roads towards Chełm and Zamość. The town lies on the eastern edge of the Lublin Upland, in an agricultural part of south-eastern Poland shaped by fields and gently rolling terrain. Piaski’s past reflects the mixed communities that once lived across this borderland: before the Second World War it was home to Poles, Jews and Protestant settlers, a legacy recalled by its former name, Piaski Luterskie. The wartime Piaski ghetto remains an important and painful part of local memory. See how Piaski connects with the wider Lublin region by browsing webcams nearby.
