Łańcut County

Łańcut County is an administrative division in the Subcarpathian region of southeastern Poland. It comprises several municipalities, including one urban and several rural communities that together form a varied landscape.

The county was established in 1999 during Poland's administrative reforms, with Łańcut becoming its administrative center. This reorganization was part of a nationwide reshaping of regional governance.

The Ulma Family Museum in Markowa displays documents and objects about Poles who sheltered Jewish neighbors during World War II. Visitors can explore personal stories of rescue and courage from that era.

The area is accessible via major transportation routes, including Rzeszow-Jasionka Airport and rail lines connecting Kraków to Medyka. Visitors should plan how to travel between the different communities to explore all attractions.

The area contains traditional wooden structures that reflect the rural architecture of the region, including well-maintained farmsteads in Markowa. These buildings offer insight into how local communities lived in earlier times.
