Gładyszów, Rural village in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland
Gładyszów is a village in southern Poland near the Slovak border, belonging to Gmina Uście Gorlickie in Gorlice County. The settlement sits within the Lesser Poland region, surrounded by the landscape of the Beskid Mountains.
The village was founded in the 16th century by the Gładysz family and later became the property of the nobleman Jan Wielopolski. During World War I, the region saw intense fighting between Austro-Hungarian and Russian forces.
The village maintains a Greek Catholic Church dedicated to the Ascension of Our Lord, reflecting the religious heritage of its former Lemko population.
The village is best reached by car and offers simple lodging plus basic services in nearby Gorlice town. Spring through autumn are the best times to visit, when roads are accessible and the mountain climate is mild.
The village contains World War I Cemetery number 55, which holds about 90 Austro-Hungarian and Russian soldiers. This quiet site is a rare testament to the region's wartime past and draws visitors interested in military memorials.
