Sandomierz News from September 8, 2009. Police and city guards in Sandomierz follow the footsteps of Father Matthew. Today the Mayor gave them four bicycles. Municipal authorities don't stop on this however, as they plan to introduce mounted patrols. The Police recieved new radio cars in Autumn last year, but they can sent the bikes where car can't go. To the park, some greens or squares where most of the offences are commited. Four bicycles along with equipment and helmets cost about 10,000 zł. Police officers admit that they have more needs than just the bikes, but they'll wait patiently for it. According to the guardians of the public order bicycle partrols may effectively improve safety.
Market square in Kazimierz Dolny, Poland
SEE MY HISTORY SITE ON FACEBOOK :
The market square in Kazimierz Dolny - the most attractive in Poland. The earliest reference to the town that I know of is from the 11th century due to the presence of a Benedictine settlement called Wietrzna Gora. In 1181, Prince Kazimierz II awarded the settlement to Norbertine nuns from Kraków's district of Zwierzyniec. Grateful for the gift, the nuns changed its name to Kazimierz, in honor of the prince.
I don't know when Kazimierz became Kazimierz Dolny (Lower) or why this word was chosen however legend has it that it was added to distinguish it from the town of Kazimierz which was just outside of Kraków then.
In the early 14th century, the village became a royal possession, and King Wladyslaw Lokietek founded here a parish church in 1325. King Kazimierz Wielki granted the town municipal rights in the first half of the 14th century. Later on, King Wladyslaw Jagiello modernised Kazimierz Dolny, creating a modern town, with a market square and streets. At that time, the decision was taken not to build any houses on northern side of the market square, so as not to obstruct the view of the church and the castle. The basic outline of the town has not changed since this date although there were fires in 1561 and 1585 which required the town to be rebuilt.
The sixteenth century was a time of wealth thanks to the grain trade, located on the Vistula. You can still see the grain warehouses although today the buildings are used for other things. In 1656 Swedish troops under King Charles X Gustav destroyed the town. As the grain trade was finished because of this war the population declined. Attempts to renew the trade failed once the war ended due to western Europe finding grain suppliers elsewhere. After the partitions of Poland, Kazimierz found itself in Russia whilst the port of Gdańsk where its products were exported from was in Germany.
However because of the depopulation of the town, it maintained its charm. This attracted people here from the end of the nineteenth century and artistic communities were formed. Even the Nazis saw its beauty and planned to make a sort of resort for the SS from the town. During the war, part of the town square was destroyed by artillery fire but these buildings were rebuilt.
My channel on you tube : is one of the most prolific from Poland, although unfortunately not the most visited. With almost one film per day, one may be forgiven for thinking I do nothing else but I do have a day job as well. I have produced more than 400 original films, most in English but also in Polish, French, Italian, Spanish and the occassional hint of German and Hebrew. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects
Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!
There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focussing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers. Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!
Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region and the sites and give a pretty good idea where future films are going to come from! Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!

Chociaż to już początek jesieni, pogoda w sobotnie popołudnie 24 września 2011 r. była iście letnia. Rowerowy Rajd wyruszył z Kutna o godz. 15.00 i po kilkudziesięciu minutach spokojnej jazdy, rajdowicze dotarli do Oporowa. Na początku bezpieczeństwo rowerzystów zapewniały dwa pojazdy: policji na przedzie i Straży Miejskiej z tyłu, ale po odwołaniu policjatów, wytrwale i do końca dbał o bezpieczną jazdę podczas rajdu, pojazd kutnowskiej straży z samym panem komendantem za kierownicą.
Na jakiś czas parkowe alejki, drewniany most i otoczenie zamku, zapełniły się barwnymi rowerami i koszulkami rajdowiczów. Po pierwszym kontakcie ze średniowieczna historią Oporowa i zamku, część uczestników rozpoczęła regenarycyjne posiłki, inni zafascynowani przyrodą i architekturą nie omieszkali użyć aparatów fotografiocznych, a jeszcze inni zajęli się przeglądem technicznym rowerów i usuwaniem drobnych usterek. Nad całością czuwał jak zwykle, prezes Kutnowskiego Klubu Turystycznego pan Bartosz Seredna.
