Gmina Andrespol, Rural municipality in Łódź East County, Poland.
Gmina Andrespol is a rural municipality in Łódź East County, central Poland. The area comprises several villages and settlements spread across the local landscape of the region.
The area was founded in 1807 when Magdalena von Jordan-Tuchecka signed an agreement with German settler families from Pomerania. These new arrivals established the foundation for the communities that developed in the region.
The area takes its name from Andreasfeld, reflecting the German origins of the settlement. The village layout and organization still show traces of how the communities organized themselves after arriving from the Baltic region.
The municipality sits close to Łódź and maintains road connections with the city. Visitors can use the official website andrespol.pl to find local information and administrative details.
The initial settlers each received a specific plot of land and were exempt from taxes for six years to encourage building homes. This arrangement helped the new settlement grow quickly and attract more families.
