Huba is a village with a Schulzenamt in the municipality of Czorsztyn in the powiat Nowotarski of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship in Poland .

geography

The place is located on a hill above the northern bank of the Czorsztyn reservoir below the Lubań mountains in the Gorcen in the Podhale region . It can be reached via Voivodeship Road 969 .

history

The place was first mentioned in 1765 as Huba . The name is derived from the word huba (field drag ) or from the mushroom type huba .

The village initially belonged to the Kingdom of Poland (from 1569 the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania ), Kraków Voivodeship , Sącz District. During the first partition of Poland in 1772, the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire came into being (from 1804). From 1855 it belonged to the Nowy Targ district .

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the village became part of Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . From 1975 to 1998 Huba was part of the Nowy Sącz Voivodeship .

tourism

Tourism has always played an important role in this region due to the lived Goralen culture and the relative proximity to Zakopane . The tourist infrastructure is quite well developed; There is a small hotel on the main road and a rest area with a view of the lake, as well as several bed and breakfasts in Huba.

The place has a driveway to the reservoir. While there is a bathing and sailing boat center on the south bank at Niedzica- Zamek, the north side of the lake is more used by anglers, as swimming is too dangerous here.
