Paczółtowice, Polish village in Lesser Poland.
Paczółtowice is a rural settlement in Lesser Poland set within gently rolling landscape surrounded by fields and patches of forest. The village has a scattered settlement pattern with houses spread across country roads and a small wooden church as its main landmark.
The wooden parish church was built in the 15th century from larch wood and stands as one of the village's oldest structures. The settlement itself developed as an agricultural community and maintained this character throughout the centuries.
The village remains centered around farming and traditional crafts that local families continue to practice today. The parish church functions as the gathering place for residents and shapes the rhythm of community life.
The village is connected to Kraków by regular bus services, making it accessible for day trips from the nearby city. Visitors should expect it to be a small community where services are limited and most amenities require traveling to larger towns.
The village is home to a shooting range with ten separate practice areas divided between handgun and long weapon sections. This facility stands out unexpectedly in what is otherwise a typical rural farming community.
