Żabno, Municipality in Lesser Poland, Poland

Żabno spreads across the banks of the Dunajec River, positioned 14 kilometers northwest of Tarnów at an elevation of 183 meters above sea level.

The settlement received its town charter before 1385, when Queen Jadwiga of Poland confirmed Żabno's Magdeburg rights at the request of Spytek of Melsztyn.

The town maintains traditional weekly markets that originated from royal privileges granted in 1487, connecting present-day commerce with medieval trading practices.

The Tarnów-Szczucin railway line serves the town, providing transportation links to larger urban centers in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship.

The municipality experienced complete destruction during the Swedish invasion of 1656 and later endured a devastating fire in 1799, yet rebuilt each time.
