What does the manor farm reveal about Łąka’s history?
The documentary mention in 1394 provides a specific date as a reference point in the village’s history. A former manor farm with a park lies in the northern part of Łąka. A barn is the only surviving building from the historic farm complex; modern farm buildings are currently unused. The manor farm complex is included in the voivodeship register of immovable cultural heritage. The manor farm is therefore an important historical landmark in Łąka.
A small park with dense, mature tree cover and oaks lies north of the manor farm courtyard. It is the only fully preserved element of the original spatial layout. When exploring Łąka’s heritage, it is therefore worth distinguishing between the preserved park, the barn and the unused modern farm buildings: they represent different parts and periods of the manor farm area.
