Koprzywnica, Historic municipality in Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, Poland

Koprzywnica extends over 17.9 square kilometers along the Koprzywianka river, featuring traditional Polish architecture and structured urban planning within Sandomierz County.

Prince Casimir II brought Cistercian monks to Koprzywnica in 1185, leading to its development before receiving town rights from Duke Bolesław V in 1268.

The Cistercian church of St. Florian and the eastern wing of the former monastery represent the religious heritage that shaped the town through centuries.

The municipality maintains direct connections to National Road 79, linking the towns of Kraków and Sandomierz through the Lesser Poland region.

After losing its town status in 1869 under Russian administration, Koprzywnica regained this designation in 2001, marking a new chapter in its municipal development.
