Florynka, Mountain village in Lesser Poland, Poland

Florynka sits in the southern region of Poland, stretching across 20 square kilometers between Grybów and Nowy Sącz in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship.

The village served as the central location for the formation of the Lemko-Rusyn People's Republic from December 1918 until March 1920, when Polish authorities intervened.

The Saint Michael Church, constructed in 1875, stands as a representation of the religious shifts between Greek Catholic and Orthodox faiths in the community.

The village connects to larger urban centers, positioned 7 kilometers from Grybów, 22 kilometers from Nowy Sącz, and 93 kilometers from the city of Kraków.

Operation Vistula in 1947 dispersed the Lemko inhabitants of Florynka across 30 different villages within 6 counties, transforming the demographic composition.

Location: Gmina Grybów
