St. Catherine’s Church: a wooden church with an older crucifix

The wooden Church of St. Catherine in Kamionka Mała was built in the 18th century. A crucifix dating from around 1470 is set on the rood beam. The church and the crucifix thus represent two different periods: the church dates from the 18th century, while the artwork is several centuries older. If you are interested in sacred wooden architecture and historic art, this gives you a specific reason to include Kamionka Mała in your travel plans.

The Wooden Architecture Route also passes the Church of St. Catherine. You can therefore link a visit to the church with an interest in this architectural route. When planning, you can consider the wooden church and the crucifix as two distinct aspects of the same place: the building from the 18th century and the artwork dating from around 1470.

Walking and cycling routes in the Laskowa municipality

The Laskowa municipality has a total of 25 kilometres of walking and cycling routes and suggests four routes to help visitors discover its main attractions. The 25 kilometres and four suggested routes apply to the municipality of Laskowa. For getting your bearings, the specific places along the way are particularly useful: two of the described routes can be clearly distinguished by their different courses.

Walking Route 2 starts in Laskowa and goes via Rozpite, Korab, Sałasz, Jaworz and Ujanowice before returning to Laskowa. It is also suitable for mountain bikes. The named places give you a clear idea of the stops along this route. Walking Route 4 leads from the centre of Laskowa via Laskowa Górna and the lower and upper stations of the ski area, then continues to Makowica and around the summit of Kamionna and Zbójka before returning to the centre. This route is also suitable for mountain bikes.

Which route suits your plans?

Comparing the two courses, Route 2 offers a sequence of named places between Laskowa and Ujanowice. Route 4 takes you, among other places, to the ski area’s stations, to Makowica and around the summit of Kamionna. Both routes are described as walking trails and are also suitable for mountain bikes; it is the places along the way, rather than their shared use, that distinguish them most.

For planning your trip, it is useful to distinguish the specific cultural destination in Kamionka Mała from the routes in the Laskowa municipality. You can treat St. Catherine’s Church as a focus for cultural history and compare the route descriptions separately by their places along the way. If you first want to explore the architectural history, focus on the church and crucifix; if you are choosing a route, use the different place names and courses as a guide.
