Year: 2015
Type: article
Abstract: In the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship there are numerous former towns possessing a village status nowadays. Most of them were deprived of town privileges between 1869 and 1870, under the Russian regulation. These sites lost the characteristics of urban areas in the slightest degree. The paper analyzes the infrastructure and functional, morphological and demographic situation of such villages. Some of them were identified as having a chance to regain the town rights.
