Zawichost, Municipal town in Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, Poland
Zawichost occupies 20 square kilometers along the Vistula River banks, featuring residential areas and administrative buildings at 159 meters above sea level.
The town experienced notable growth during the 14th century when King Kazimierz Wielki constructed a castle to protect the strategic Vistula River crossing point.
The merger of Zawichost with Starostów in 1820 created distinct neighborhoods that reflected the coexistence of Polish and Jewish communities until World War II.
The municipality maintains a dedicated website providing essential information about local services, with administrative offices operating under the postal code 27-630.
Zawichost reached its economic peak in the 15th and 16th centuries due to its position on the trade route connecting Kraków to Lithuania.
