Kartuzy County, Administrative district in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland

Kartuzy County is an administrative district in Pomeranian Voivodeship that covers around 1,120 square kilometers. The territory is divided into eight municipalities, with Kartuzy serving as the seat of local government.

The district took its current shape in 1999 during Poland's administrative reforms that reorganized local government divisions. This restructuring established the modern boundaries and framework that the area maintains today.

The county is home to Kashubian traditions that shape daily life and local crafts in its communities. You can sense this heritage in the way people speak and in the handmade goods that remain important to residents.

The district sits between the larger cities of Gdańsk and Gdynia, making it easily accessible from major urban centers in the region. The area offers a mix of urban and rural landscapes, so plan your visit depending on what you want to see.

Żukowo, one of the municipalities in the district, developed into one of the more populated settlements in the area. This pattern shows how the county contains communities of very different sizes and densities.
