Some even decide to follow in the footsteps of the Polish comedy of all times and see the locations where it was shot with their own eyes. The recording of such a trip was shared by the creator of the “Amazing Poland Trip” channel. At the moment, the video has over 338,000 views. views.
In the footsteps of Kargul and Pawlak
There are several locations where the comedy “Sami Swoi” was shot. The first one is the station where Pawlak’s brother arrives, and after a while the whole family runs in late to greet him. This is how the film and the whole trilogy begin, which has stolen the Polish audience and permanently entered the history of cinema. The frames were captured at the Czernica Wrocławska Railway Station.
The search is over
– The set designers had a very big problem with finding the main location of the film. The director’s vision was clear: it was meant to be two houses facing each other, standing in one yard with a common barn. After many weeks of searching, we finally succeeded – says the creator in the “Amazing Poland Trip” channel. Finally, the filmmakers found the perfect location in Dobrzykowice, 14 km from Wrocław.
The houses in Dobrzykowice at Szkolna Street have not changed much over the years. The famous fence still stands there, as well as Kargul’s yard looks almost identical. The owners of the farm supposedly make it available to visitors.
A unique town
It is also impossible to forget about “Pearl of Lower Silesia”, which appears in the cult Polish comedy. Lubomierz, because that’s what we’re talking about, “appeared” in several frames of “Sami Swoich”, delighting with its unusual architecture and charming market square. This small town in south-western Poland has about six thousand inhabitants. It is also worth mentioning about Kargul and Pawlak Museum in Lubomierz. We will find there various types of memorabilia and props related to the fate of two feuding families.
