Sabaudia youtube
Anthony Raczkiewicz (my grandfather) and his siblings were born in Sabaudia, near the city of Tomaszów Lubelski. This video will give you a glimpse of the village:
“The very name of the village of Sabaudia reminds us exceptionally European. No wonder, because apart from Poles, it was also founded by foreigners, five Germans and a Dane. Until today, some residents have retained foreign-sounding surnames and remember their ancestors who came to this area in 1840 looking for their place.
Today's inhabitants praise their town very much. They have good access to the city, beautiful views and a school. The Tomaszów Lubelski commune has made many investments for them: a new road or lighting are just two of many examples of investments, which often use European Union funds. It is also thanks to them that the Polish countryside develops, becomes more friendly to its inhabitants and more attractive to tourists and new settlers.
While traveling through the Tomaszów Lubelski Commune, we will visit every town in this commune. We will show people who create it, the traditions that are cultivated there, monuments worth visiting and the quiet, idyllic life of the inhabitants of this wonderful region.”
