The boats went to Gdansk and then around the world. \nSince prehistory, it was along river banks that the first inhabitants settled, the first settlements were established, and the most important cities were built and developed. The photographs in this exhibition are the result of two years of work by Wiktor Strumi\u0142\u0142o and two years living in Urzecze.\nWiktor Strumi\u0142\u0142o \nA photographer by passion, author of the photographic exhibition Urzecze and the Vistula presented at the Ethnographic Museum in Warsaw (4 September 2020 \u2013 29 November 2020).
