A recent post mentioned a salt mine attraction near Krakow? Studies of Poland in the 1815 to WW1 period talk about salt mines along the southern border with Austria. Can anyone tell me if there were/are salt mines in the northwest in the area around Lipno? My family lived between Tupadly, Wielgie and Pokrzywnik until they emigrated in the 1890's and in the early 1950's, some Russian representatives came to my uncle's home in New York and required him to sign over ownership of some property we think was a salt mine?
