Polish equivalent of Parmesan cheese?

Hello I'm pretty new to Poland, so I'm still in the process of figuring out what is what every time I go to the supermarket.

I've been trying to find Parmesan cheese for several weeks without success, and Google translate doesn't seem to work well on this subject.

So it there actually an equivalent of Parmesan cheese in Poland that's called something else? And where can I possibly get them?
Thanks!

Am surprised it's not in Tesco or EPI. It's Parmezan in Polish I think. If not, it might be 'ser tarty' by Gratino, or actually try this one kalorynka.pl/opinie/Ser-wloski-typu-Parmezan-tarty-Galbani/6960.aspx

Good luck!

You can get Gran Padano in Lidl, it's a wee bit stronger though.

A lot of places sell a cheese called Dziugas, from Lithuania. It's very similar and a lot cheaper. Carrefour certainly have it, as well as some better quality small shops. It's worth trying.

Thanks! I will certainly take a look at Tesco again. Although the price seems a lot higher than expected >.< probably because imported from Italy I guess
