In the mini-region

Thursday - a day without films and theme meetings! We use the day and go touring the region which does not end in Kazimierz. We chose places that are not well-known and not often visited by tourists, but have their own special attractions. Lukasz, an Opoleian who has extensive knowledge about the ...

Walking aroinf Kazimierz

I joined a group guided around Kazimierz by a competent guide. The theme of the walk was: Pre-war Kazimierz. Actually, pre-war Kazimierz does not really exist! We were moveing from place to place where had originally stood the original buildings, houses, shops, craft workshops, but today there a...

Mięćmierz

One of the attractions of Kazimierz is Mięćmierz.  "Mięćmierz, sometimes Męćmierz - part of Kazimierz Dolny, on the bank of the Wisła River, 3 km south-west of the centre.

The meeting was traditio...

Time to start the festival!

The festival has started. Every day there are 12 - 13 films screened in two large tents and one in open air - on the Small Market Square. The program includes new films from 2017-2019 and a retrospective of Kazimierz Kutz and Marco Belocchio’s*. We all have a typical festival dilemma what to choos...

An evening meeting with Kazimierz

"Our" Angel is located on the top of the mountain. Hence the street name: Góra. From the Market Square we have to overcome 1 km - strongly up and up the mountain. Several returns home during the day will successfully replace any other physical exercises that would keep us fit! The way down, mainly...
