Pniewy, Municipality in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland

The city stretches along important trade routes connecting Warsaw with Berlin, featuring a rectangular market square and multiple connecting streets.

Established in 1256 by the Pniewski family from the house of Nalecz, the settlement received its municipal rights during the late 13th century.

The late gothic font at Saint Lawrence Church and rococo ambo in The Holy Spirit Church represent the religious architectural heritage of Pniewy.

The town functions as a service center with educational facilities, including the Primary School of Powstancow Wielkopolskich and an upper-secondary school complex.

The Congregation of the Ursulines of the Agonizing Heart of Jesus, founded by Ursula Ledochowska in the 1920s, maintains its headquarters in Pniewy.
