Zagórz, Municipality in Subcarpathian Voivodeship, Poland

Located within the Bukowsko Upland mountains, Zagórz stretches along the Osława River, surrounded by green hills and valleys in southeastern Poland.

The town traces its origins to 1412, when it was established as a settlement, later becoming the property of the noble Tarnawski family in the 16th century.

The ruins of an 18th-century Carmelite monastery complex stand as a reminder of the religious and architectural legacy that shaped the town's identity.

Zagórz functions as a railroad junction connecting multiple lines extending toward Ukraine, Slovakia, and western Polish destinations through the PKP network.

The town's rail workers constructed the armored train Gromobój during the Polish-Ukrainian War, marking a notable contribution to regional military efforts.
