Piotrków County, Administrative district in Łódź Voivodeship, Poland.
Piotrków County is an administrative district in central Poland's Łódź Voivodeship comprising eleven municipalities spread across a wide area. The two main towns, Sulejów and Wolbórz, serve as centers for the surrounding villages and smaller settlements.
The district was established in 1999 during broad Polish government reforms that restructured the country's local administration. This reorganization created numerous new districts and fundamentally changed how local authorities interacted with regional government.
The population of Piotrków County maintains traditions through regular municipal events, with each gmina organizing celebrations that highlight regional customs.
The municipalities in this region are connected by a network of roads that link the various towns and villages. Visitors exploring the area should have access to a car, as public transportation outside the larger towns is limited.
Although it serves as the county seat, Piotrków Trybunalski actually lies outside this administrative district and operates as an independent city. This geographic and administrative separation is a peculiar arrangement that often surprises visitors.
