Niepołomice, Municipal town in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland

Located 25 kilometers east of Kraków, Niepołomice extends along the Vistula River near a large forest covering 12,000 hectares of protected land.

The settlement emerged around a hunting castle built between 1340 and 1349 by King Casimir III the Great, receiving town privileges from Austrian authorities in 1776.

The Renaissance royal castle, transformed into a cultural center, houses exhibitions, conferences, and contains a museum displaying regional artifacts and art collections.

The town offers direct transportation links to Kraków through regular bus services, making it accessible for both residents and visitors exploring the region.

The European Bison Conservation Center near Niepołomice works to protect and breed these large mammals, contributing to their population recovery in Poland.
