The complex of Goral wooden buildings in Zakopane
|
Zakopane gmina: Zakopane |
The complex of Goral wooden buildings on Kościeliska St. the oldest street in Zakopane, brings together the most interesting C19th Goral huts. Here, at the fork of the Młyniska and Cicha Woda torrents, Zakopane was born. Many of the houses have retained their historical character, and more than a dozen of the Goral huts, dating mainly from the second half of the C19th, are buildings featuring on the heritage list. On the stretch between the old church and Skibówki, Kościeliska St. has the character of a living heritage park, and forms an integrated historical unit. The wooden church built in the mid-C19th gave this part of the street its aura of being the centre of the village. |
