Dzien Urzednika Pocztowego

A professional holiday honoring postal workers across Poland. The Polish postal service (Poczta Polska) is one of the oldest institutions in the country, dating back to 1558. Postal workers are recognized for their role in maintaining communication across villages, towns, and cities, especially in rural areas where the postman is still a vital link to the outside world.
