The cultural heritage in the country landscape of the Przemyśl region

Summary/Abstract: The Przemyśl region is famous of its rich history and folk culture that have been preserving by the following generations, who have been settled down in that area. Despite the pass of time, numerous examples of wooden rural and sacral architecture survived to our times. These are wayside shrines, Orthodox churches, churches, old buildings and associated with them traditional rural gardens. These gardens are fruit of this land and its past. The striking feature of them is a variety of plants that exists in such a small area and has been traditionally connected with the rural landscape of the Przemyśl region for centuries. The examples of such species are the following: Staphyle pinnata L., Vinca minor L., Sedum acre L. The local people preserve a specific folklore, ancient religious customs and rituals that are associated with the regional cultivation of these plants. These rural gardens, which are relics of the past epochs, deserve for protection as the aspects of regional cultural heritage.
