The course of the Way of St James in Poland is not incidental. The trail is mapped out after historic research. The course of the Medieval trade routes is compared. Dr Franciszek Mroz, one of the designers of the Malopolska Way of St James, justifies its course, ‘The short distances between the places with parish churches of St James, located on the distinct solid line from Sandomierz through Kotuszow, Szczaworyz, Probolowice, Palecznica, Niegardow, Wieclawice Stare, Kazimierz, Sanka, Palczowice to Bestwina, according to the historians, testify to a pilgrims’ trail to the grave of St James in Santiago de Compostela, in Malopolska in the Middle Ages.

if you feel in need of a good laugh, try the online Polish translator. Here's what it makes of the page on the Piast route http://www.tranexp.com:2000/InterTran?t ... pol&to=eng
Because the Polish for 'Way' is much the same as the word for 'dear', Way of St James becomes Dear Jim. And poor old Alfons II becomes Whoremaster II. Great stuff!
