Jedwabne, Town municipality in Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland
Jedwabne is a town in northeastern Poland within Podlaskie Voivodeship, located in the Łomża County area. It developed as a local administrative and trading center surrounded by farmland that formed the economic basis of the surrounding region.
The town received city rights from King August III in 1736, which allowed it to hold weekly markets and five annual fairs. This marked its transition from a settlement into an established trading hub in the region.
The town contained both a wooden Catholic church with two steeples and a wooden synagogue, representing the architectural traditions of different religious communities.
The town offers visitors access to local services including schools, health facilities, and business infrastructure concentrated around the town center. The flat terrain and rural surroundings make it easy to navigate and explore on foot.
The town became a textile manufacturing center by the late 1700s, with weaving workshops that employed numerous workers in local production. This industry shaped the town's economic life for multiple generations.
