Chochołów, Mountain village in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland
The village sits along the banks of Czarny Dunajec stream, featuring over one hundred wooden houses built in traditional highland architecture style.
The settlement dates to the 16th century when King Stephen Bathory appointed Bartlomiej Chocholowski as hereditary administrator for military contributions.
The wooden houses follow a specific layout with narrow sides facing the road and undergo annual cleaning before Easter, maintaining their bright appearance.
Visitors can explore the Museum of Chocholow Uprising, located in a historic highland cottage from 1798, showcasing regional artifacts and uprising memorabilia.
A particular house named Chalupa z jednej jedli contains a wall constructed from a single fir tree trunk over a century ago.
