Jaslo - PKS - Buses and Buses - Transportation - Attractions and Monuments

Jasło is a city in Subcarpathian Voivodeship located at the junction of three rivers: the Wisłoka, Ropa and Jasiolka. It is inhabited by more than 35,000 people. It is one of the oldest cities in Podkarpacie - it received city rights (Polish) in 1262, and was located under German law in 1365. During the Renaissance era, Jaslo experienced a significant boom due to its location on a trade route. In the 19th century it began to industrialize, which was closely related to the discovery of oil deposits in the area. It was almost completely destroyed during World War II, and rebuilt after the war.

Jasielsk's market square is surrounded by picturesque townhouses, the oldest of which date back to the turn of the 18th and 19th centuries. Tenement No. 17 once housed a pharmacy, which was run by Ignacy Lukasiewicz, the precursor of the oil industry.
