PANORAMA RACŁAWICKA
The Raclawice Panorama is one of the few places in the world where one can admire a relic of 19th century mass culture. The large painting (15x114m), thanks to the combination of special painting (special perspective) and technical procedures (lighting, artificial terrain, darkened, winding approach), "transports" the viewer to another reality and another time. Panorama Racławicka is the first and only Polish work of its kind preserved to this day.
