Krajno Pierwsze

Tucked into the northern foothills of the Świętokrzyskie Mountains, Krajno Pierwsze is a settlement whose character is shaped by rolling upland terrain beneath the Łysogóry range. The wider Krajno area lies close to Świętokrzyski National Park, where forested slopes and the region’s distinctive quartzite screes mark the higher ground. Nearby Krajno-Zagórze is home to Sabat Krajno, a recreation park known for its avenue of miniature models representing landmark buildings from around the world.

The terrain of Holy Cross Voivodeship ranges from the forested Świętokrzyskie Mountains in its north-central belt to the limestone hills and river valleys of the Nida Basin in the south, giving the region a compact but varied inland character. Łysica, at 614 metres, is the highest point of the Świętokrzyskie Mountains, while the Nida flows through a quieter agricultural district. Kielce, the voivodeship capital, is home to the 17th-century Palace of the Kraków Bishops. The Holy Cross monastery on Łysa Góra gave the region its name and remains a defining spiritual landmark.

Poland stretches from the Baltic Sea coast in the north to the Carpathian Mountains along its southern frontier, encompassing broad lowlands, lake districts and upland ranges. The Vistula, the country’s longest river, links Kraków and Warsaw before reaching the Baltic near Gdańsk, while the Masurian Lake District is defined by a dense network of lakes. Kraków’s historic centre, including Wawel Castle, recalls Poland’s former royal capital; Warsaw’s rebuilt Old Town speaks to the city’s recovery after the Second World War. The Białowieża Forest preserves one of Europe’s last primeval lowland forests and is home to European bison. Follow how Poland’s regions relate to one another by browsing webcams across the country.
