Bliżyn, Administrative village in Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, Poland.

Located along the Kamienna River and Bliżyn Reservoir, this settlement sits at an elevation of 265 meters in south-central Poland.

First documented in 1410 when King Władysław II Jagiełło stayed overnight while traveling to the Battle of Grunwald, marking its early significance.

The village preserves the memory of World War II events through a symbolic wooden matzevah erected in 2017 to commemorate victims.

The area provides 53 accommodation options, ranging from hotels to guesthouses, with prices starting from 20 PLN per person.

The surrounding forests contain two nature reserves, Świnia Góra and Dalejów, within the Puszcza Świętokrzyska featuring dinosaur remnants.
