Lipnica Murowana is a small village in the Carpathian foothills, 20km south of Bochnia, and the unlikely setting for a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The wooden Church of St Leonard, built around 1500, is one of six surviving log-built churches of southern Lesser Poland inscribed together — a fine example of Gothic carpentry, dark with age, with painted polychrome interiors.
The village itself is unusually picturesque, with a complete medieval market square and several other historic wooden houses. Visit in the warmer months when the church is open. Combine with Nowy Wiśnicz for a full day in the southern Bochnia countryside.
