Bachlawa

Bachlawa is located on the shores of the San, near the village of Hoczew and on the road to the larger Polańczyk. Its gas station contains a large collection of old tools and militaria.^[2]

Bachlawa was already extant in 1376 as part of the village of Terpiczów. In 1427, Terpiczów, as well as most of the drainage basin of the Hoczewka, including nearby Baligród, was attained by Matiasz ze Zboisk of the coat of arms of Grozdawa, the ancestor of the Bal family of Hoczew. Bachlawa remained in the hands of the Bal family up to the 18th century. As of 1921, 229 people lived in the village's 44 homes.^[2]

The village was later home to Zofia Roś (1912–1995), a prolific folk sculptor, described as "the most authentic" such sculptor by the author Paweł Luboński, who created sculptures and other art pieces there. Her art is found in several collections around the world.^[2]
