Summary/Abstract: Italian voyages of the 19th and 20th centuries have already been described many times. That is why this paper has been devoted to those accounts which so far have not been particularly popular with literary historians, but are still worth mentioning: Z Wenecyi do Neapolu. Wrażenia z podróży by Władysław Bełza and Za Apeninami, Na lagunach, Obrazy i obrazki Wenecyi by Stanisław Bełza. The paper consists of two parts: the first one presents Venice as seen by the above mentioned authors, while the second one, entitled Z Polski do ziemi włoskiej, z ziemi włoskiej do Polski follows the Polish traces on foreign land. Voyages of the Bełza brothers, just like romantic voyages had two routes: the first one led through the European cultural heritage, while the other one followed the track of national memorabilia.
