| Summary: | The article discusses the impact of the national border of the transport and communication accessibility of the Lubelskie Voivodship, and therefore its peripherality. The paper is based on the analysis of changes in the transport and communication infrastructure over the last century. After 1945 a unified transport system was replaced with two, almost entirely separated from each other. The political changes after 1989 had no effect on the functioning of the transport or communication system. The newly established countries, namely Belarus and the Ukraine, began functioning within the borders of the former Soviet republics, inheriting all of the features of the communication systems of the Soviet Union. Poland’s accession to the European Union and joining the Schengen Area, were significant moments for the peripherality of the discussed area. The Lubelskie Voivodship became a peripheral zone not only of Poland, but also of the European Union.
