Church institutions are the Roman Catholic parish (of Sanok deanery), the Franciscan monastery, the Greek Catholic parish, and the rabbinate.
Sanok is an ancient grod [military defensive fortification or citadel], the capital of an ancient ziemia [land, district, province], of a minor castellan, and of a grod-affiliated starosta.
The parish belongs to the Diocese of Przemysl, deanery of Sanok.
Land was the crucial scarce resource and the influx of dollars drove its price to very high levels (a foretaste of things to come in the socialist period when the dollar again became the effective measure of value).

Those who went back to their native lands (as some of them were allowed to from the late 1950s) returned as Ukrainians, whatever orientation they had supported before the war; and it is as a Ukrainian minority in the new community in Wislok that we shall have occasion to refer to them in later chapters.
