2005 saw the completion of a project featuring the restoration of the surface of the market square in lanckorona (the powiat of Wadowice, lesser Poland voivodship), funded by european union funds. The design bound the contemporary needs of residents and tourists with the tradition of the place. It is also characterised by attractive visual linkages with the hills of the beskidy mountains seen in the background. The walls of this urban interior are composed of the frontages of timber residential market-side buildings. The construction included all of the design' s assumptions and the market square currently enjoys significant popularity, being often used by residents and tourists, with its surface often playing host to occasional open-air events.Keywords: sacrum, landscape of the city, landscape sacrum, identity of the place Streszczenie W 2005 roku z dotacji unijnych zrealizowany został projekt rewaloryzacji płyty rynku w lanckoronie (pow. Wadowice, woj. małopolskie). W projekcie tym zespolono współczesne potrzeby mieszkańców i turystów z tradycją miejsca. rynek do dzisiaj zachował układ urbanistyczny właściwy średniowiecznemu XIv-wiecznemu jego kształtowi. Odznacza się on również atrakcyjnymi powiązaniami widokowymi ze wzgórzami beskidzkimi w tle. Ściany tego wnętrza urbanistycznego skonstruowane są z pierzei drewnianej mieszkaniowej zabudowy przyrynkowej. W realizacji uwzględniono wszelkie założenia projektowe i obecnie rynek ciszy się dużą popularnością, jest chętnie użytkowany przez mieszkańców i turystów, a na płycie rynku odbywają się okazjonalne imprezy plenerowe.Słowa kluczowe: sacrum, krajobraz miasta, sacrum krajobrazu, tożsamość miejsca

“…Studies focus on various aspects of it, e.g., recreational, educational [13] or therapeutic significance [14][15][16]. Other works address cultural, historical and conservation aspects [17][18][19][20], as well as natural aspects. The structure, composition and diversity of natural elements, the processes that occur within and the factors that influence the formation of natural elements are studied [21][22][23][24].…”

Today, urban greenery is at the center of attention, especially in the context of climate change. Shaped in large part by natural factors, the herb layer of public parks is a part of urban greenery that is the most sensitive to climate and soil condition changes. In this paper, we present a study intended to answer how resilient is the species composition and herb layer structure against the soil and climate condition changes in parks. To this end, we analyzed Ellenberg and Zarzycki’s ecological index numbers for species recorded in different groups in terms of historical-geographical, life forms, prevalence within the flora of Poland, and relationships with different vegetation types (phytoassociation classes) in comparison to the conditions present in parks. It was found that a large part of various species groups showed an optima and ecological tolerance spectra that went beyond the park conditions, indicating that at least some park vegetation can be expected to show resilience to changing conditions. However, changes in temperature and humidity will alter the composition and structure of the park herb layer. The direction of changes in climate and soil conditions can be decisive for herb layer transformation directions. With rising temperatures, humidity can be crucial. Poor soil moisture conditions will promote an increased share of foreign, synanthropic species, while local natural and semi-natural species will disappear. When climate change that leads to a decrease in temperatures is concerned, it is temperature and not humidity that will be the key factor in the transformation of park herb layer species compositions. The herb layer of Krakow’s parks will have the least resilience to changes in conditions within local non-synanthropic species, rare species and geophytes and to some extent also forest and meadow species.
