Wola, Silesian Voivodeship, Village in Silesian Voivodeship, Poland
The village lies 14 kilometers east of Pszczyna and 28 kilometers south of Katowice, in a region characterized by agricultural landscapes and rich soil.
The settlement emerged in medieval times as part of the Vistulan tribe territory before joining the Polish state in the 10th century under Piast dynasty rule.
