<p>view of the old town, Zamek Lubelski (Lublin Castle) and the Castle Tower (Donjon) from Zaułek Władysława Panasa (Władysław Panas's alley)<br />
<br />
One of the most charming places in Lublin is Panas's Zaułek (Panas's Alley), a staircase that leads from Po Farze Square toward St. Adalbert's Church located on Podwale Street. The alley was named after the well-known Lublin literary theorist and expert on Jewish culture Professor Władysław Panas in 2006. Above the staircase on the left in place of today's tenements, there used to be a defensive wall leading to Grodzka Gate.<br />
<br />
Władysław Ludwik Panas, literature theoretician and historian, was born on 28th March, 1947, in Western Pomerania. He was born in Dębica, in Kołobrzeg poviat. He passed matura exam in 1966 in a High School in Kołobrzeg.<br />
<br />
He started studies on Polish Philology in the University of Adam Mickiewicz in Poznań. There, he took part in famous March demonstrations. In March 1968 he took part in students' protest – which led to his arrest by SB (communist Security Service) on the second day. He was sentenced to two years in prison, and later relegated from the university.<br />
Then, he came to continue his studies in Lublin in The Catholic University of Lublin (KUL). His debut was a critical essay on Tadeusz Gajcy's poetry in "Polonista" magazine. In 1972, he completed the faculty of Polish Philology and defended his MA thesis – On the Concept of Language in Bruno Schulz prose.<br />
In the 1970s he cooperated with the underground periodical "Spotkania".<br />
He was editing staff member of "Miesiące" in the period when the "Solidarity" was forming. During the martial law he wrote articles under different pseudos.<br />
<br />
The professor was fascinated by vanished world of Lublin Jewish culture. He was inspired by Hasidic Judaism and mistical Kabbalah. He gave a particular contribution to revealing the intriguing history of Grodzka Gate and its multicultural tradition. He saw it as the center of the world and read its magical space, seeing analogies in equal distances from the Grodzka Gate to Po Farze Square and from the Gate to the tzadik's house at Szeroka 28 St.<br />
<br />
He died on 24 January, 2005. He was buried on the cemetary at Lipowa St.</p>

<br />
Lublin, administrative centre of the voivodeship and the capital of the Lublin Region, with a population of 336 000 Lublin is the ninth-largest city in Poland. Lublin and its surrounding municipalities are associated under the Lublin Metropolitan Area with the total population of more than 700 000 inhabitants. The location of the town atop loessial rolling hills of the Lublin Upland in the valley of the Bystrzyca river and its tributaries is one of its geographical assets. First settlements started to develop on the future site of Lublin in the sixth to seventh centuries. During the early Middle Ages Lublin grew in numbers, and by 1317 Lublin was granted municipal status. In 1474 Lublin became the capital of the voivodeship, a role it has continuously played to this day. During the years of the first Republic, Lublin, centrally located on the route between the two capitals of the Polish - Lithuanian Commonwealth, was an important political and trade spot, inhabited by different nationalities and religious denominations that constituted a diverse and multicultural community.<br />
<br />
In the past, Grodzka Gate guarded a passage in the city’s curtain walls. It was also a link between the Christian and Jewish towns, therefore it was often referred to as “the Jewish Gate”. Originally, the structure was quadrilateral-shaped, bore a dome and featured a subsequently added foregate (like the Krakowska Gate). At the end of the 18th century, upon the instruction of the Good Order Committee (Boni Ordinis), it was remodelled in the Neoclassical style and its defensive features were removed. This is commemorated by the date MDCCLXXXV and SAR monogram (Stanislaus Augustus Rex – King Stanisław August) placed on the gate on the side of the Old Town. After 1944, the Gate housed the High School of Fine Arts, and then the Lublin Theatre Studio.</p>

<p>This series of vehicles has not yet been shown on our photo page (which is natural, as we primarily specialise on trains), but it has had a massive impact on the whole Polish society. The Żuk series (literally translates to 'Beatle') has entered production in the Lublin Truck Factory in 1958 and has been produced in many different variants and modernisations for the next 40 years, with over half a milion units being rolled out of the prodcution line. The beatles have absolutely revolutionised the Polish lightweights tranport (just like the Volkswagen T4 did a couple of years later) and many of them can be seen to this day.<br />
<br />
A little fun fact is that the Żuk parts have also been produced under licence in Egypt, by the company Eltramco. The local name for the Żuk in Africa was Ramzes.<br />
<br />
On the picture we see a Żuk A 11 on a local road near Warka. I spotted it by accident while on a bike trip, I assume it had been returning from the local farmer's market in Warka.<br />
