Info
Zalipie, a small village in southeastern Poland, is a unique and charming destination near Krakow. Renowned for its colorful tradition, village women began painting vibrant floral designs on their homes over a century ago. This folk art extends beyond house walls to include fences, wells, and even farm buildings, creating a picturesque and cheerful atmosphere.
Today, around 20 painted houses remain, with the most notable being the farm of Felicja Curyłowa, a celebrated artist whose work gained fame in the interwar period. Visitors can explore the beautifully decorated homes, a museum, and a small shop offering handmade souvenirs, making Zalipie a delightful stop for those seeking authentic cultural experiences.

A great travel agency
AB Poland worked with me to completely customize my three days in Poland and make the most of my time. They answered all of my questions, made great suggestions and built the perfect itinerary all at reasonable enough prices. Plus, my guides Jacek in Warsaw and Kinga in Krakow were knowledgeable and friendly hosts, making conversation easy. Have nothing bad to say at all. I would highly recommend AB Poland.
