Lubawa, Urban municipality in Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, Poland.
Lubawa stands at 145 meters above sea level on the Sandela River, surrounded by the Wzgórza Lubawskie forest reserve and Drwęca River valley.
The city received its first documentation in 1216 through a papal bull from Pope Innocent III and later became the seat of Culm bishops in 1257.
The Gothic St. Anne's Church, constructed in 1330, represents the architectural and religious heritage that shaped the identity of this Polish municipality.
Modern Lubawa functions as an industrial center with Lubawa S.A. manufacturing military equipment, including bulletproof vests for the Polish Army.
Nicolaus Copernicus visited Lubawa between 1535 and 1539, contributing to the development of his astronomical work 'De revolutionibus orbium coelestium.'
