Larger town on the Kamienna river. Lots of tourist stalls, with all sorts of local things, smoked cheese, sausage, precious stones. But there is also a lot of junk to see.
The disadvantage is the enormous car traffic through the main streets, which is why caution is always required.More about the story:
Schreiberhau, whose place name refers to the medieval clearing, was first mentioned in 1366 as Schribirshau and in 1372 referred to as Schreibershow. It belonged to the Duchy of Schweidnitz-Jwor, which came under the Crown of Bohemia in 1368.Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szklarska_Poręba
