Summary

edit
Description
English: Wadowice is a city in southern Poland, 50 kilometres southwest of Kraków with around 20,000 inhabitants, situated on the Skawa river, confluence of Vistula, in the eastern part of Silesian Foothills (Pogórze Śląskie). Wadowice is best known for being the birthplace of Karol Wojtyła. After World War I and the dissolution of the monarchy, Wadowice became part of the newly-reborn Poland. The seat of a district (powiat) remained in the town and in 1919 the inhabitants of the area formed the Twelth Infantry Regiment that took part in the Polish-Bolshevik War of 1919–1920. In 1920 Karol Wojtyła was born in Wadowice (he became the bishop of Kraków, then Pope John Paul II, and was canonised after his death).
The Scotch Mist Gallery contains many photographs of historic buildings, monuments and memorials of Poland.
