This short video is fun to watch to see what Łaszczówka looks like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFJE-2E10fY
Without knowing Polish though, we will miss a lot that this beautiful reporter highlights. I did learn that the village has a volunteer fire department, a school, library and a football (soccer) club. The "Piekiełko" Geological Reserve is highlighted. The boulders are thought to be a place of pre-Slavic worship but it is unknown how it was made or who did it. The area is called “wilderness.” The Reserve dates from 1962 in an attempt to protect the boulders (which are made of sandstone) and are unique in the area and ramparts. Also seen is a shrine of the visitation of the Mother of God.
