Łosice County, Administrative district in Masovian Voivodeship, Poland.
Łosice County is a rural administrative unit in the Masovian Voivodeship of eastern Poland, made up of six municipalities. The main settlement is the town of Łosice, which serves as the county seat, surrounded by farmland and scattered forest.
The county came into existence during Poland's major administrative reform of 1998, taking effect on January 1, 1999. That reform reorganized the entire country into a new three-tier system of local government, replacing the previous structure.
Agricultural fairs and village festivals are a regular part of life in the county, where local crafts and regional food take center stage. A visitor passing through in late summer is likely to come across one of these community gatherings in a village square.
Getting around the county is easiest by car, as the municipalities are spread across a wide rural area and public transport connections are limited. Starting from the town of Łosice gives a good base for exploring the surrounding villages and countryside.
The county sits at the edge of the Podlaskie region, and some villages here show traces of Eastern Orthodox heritage alongside Roman Catholic ones, visible in old chapels and roadside shrines. This mix of traditions is easy to spot for an attentive traveler.
