Poland remains one of the few European countries in which with the onset of the
21st century one can still encounter some "living" manifestations of
folk culture.
The traditional costumes usually people are wearing on festive
occasions.

Orlowska, Janusz Jurjewjcz, Janusz Karolak and Aleksander M. Haupt.
Many traditions are regional.
Due to the rich variety
of many regional traditions in Poland, some published information might be little different.
Pictures are published for
information only and are from the books: Poland's Living Folk Culture and Struj
Ludowy w Polsce and old postcards.
