Tuchów, Medieval city in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland
The city stretches along the Biała River at 220 meters above sea level, situated 100 kilometers from Krakow and 80 kilometers from Slovakia.
The salt mines operating between the 13th and 14th centuries influenced King Casimir III to grant Magdeburg rights to Tuchów in 1340.
Since the 16th century, pilgrims gather at the Sanctuary during the first week of July to honor the Virgin Mary and her reported miracles.
The city connects to major transportation routes through an electrified railway line from Tarnów to Nowy Sącz and the arterial road to Krynica.
The local economy developed through dried prunes export along the Wisla River, establishing trade connections between Hungary and Gdansk in the 17th century.
