Classic Cars Rally 2010

On last Sunday inhabitants of Nowy Sacz could admire old cars which were showed on the town square and in the The Little Galician Town.

It was the second edition of such event. Photos from the last year you can see here and here.

The Festival of the Children of Mountains [2]

We decided to present you the second part of the photos from the The Festival of the Children of Mountains. Today - the group from India. Their colourful dresses can light up rainy days:)

In the last photo you can see children dancing on the crossroads during the march-past through Lwowska Street.

The Festival of the Children of Mountains

The Festival of the Children of Mountains this year started July 18th and lasted to July 25th. Unfortunately we don't have enough time to watch shows but we participated in march-past through Lwowska Street toward the town square.

In the first photo you can see children from Bulgaria, in the second one - children coming from Romania.

More photos of that festival (from last year) you can see here.

Today two other photos from the Saturday's event. You can see the camp of the knights situated near the Saint Margaret church and knights presenting themselves on the town square:)

Battle of Grunwald

After a long time we are back:) We hope we will update our blog more often:)

Today we want to present you photos from the event which took place in Nowy Sacz last Saturday. July 15th was the 600th anniversary of the Battle of Grunwald. To celebrate this anniversary there were attractions like shows of knights' fight, show of medieval dress and music.

We will present other photos from this event tomorrow.

End of holidays?

Today we decided to post quite holiday and summer photo in spite of the fact that it is the first day of school, so the end of holidays. But... not for us:) We are leaving Nowy Sacz and going on deserved holidays:) We will be back in the second part of September.

We wish you happy days!

P.S. This photo was taken in Niedzica:)

Swedish Chapel

This is so-called 'Swedish Chapel' ('Kapliczka Szwedzka') from 1771. It is situated near Jagiellonska Street. It commemorates the victory of our town during the Swedish Deluge (Nowy Sacz was the first town in Poland where the Swedes became defeated). The chapel was built in the place where the Swedish soldiers were buried.

Stop and read

In this 'book' there is written information about the place where it is situated (this particular is next to the 'boulders' in the 'Planty' Park).
In Nowy Sacz you can find such 'infoboards' near the castle as well (and maybe in some other places where we didn't notice them:))
