Lanckorona

Landslides have once again hit Lanckorona, a village 45 kilometres south of Krakow, threatening the village’s historic square and other settlements in its vicinity - meaning that Lanckorona needs your help more than ever.

John Beauchamp reports

The first onset of landslides took place in mid-May, after houses in the surrounding settlements of Łaśnica and Podchybie became afflicted by landslides that moved houses up to 10 metres.

Now, a second wave of destruction has occurred in Lanckorona, after a heavy rainstorm caused a landslide in the direct environs of the ‘Tadeusz’ guest-house, some 500 metres away from the village centre.
