Ryki, County capital in Lublin Voivodeship, Poland

Located between Warsaw and Lublin, Ryki contains crossroads of national routes and serves as the administrative center of Ryki County.

The settlement received initial documentation in 1439 as Riki and obtained city rights in 1782, though these were temporarily withdrawn in 1810.

In 1570, the town established its religious foundation with a wooden church dedicated to St. Jacob the Apostle and opened a parish school.

The town extends across the Lublin region with direct road connections to major Polish cities, making it accessible for regional transportation.

During the early 20th century, Ryki maintained a demographic composition where 94 percent of its residents belonged to the Jewish community.
