Świebodzice, Urban municipality in Świdnica County, Poland.

Świebodzice extends across 30.4 square kilometers of terrain in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, with a population of 22,793 residents in south-western Poland.

The settlement first emerged in records as Svidnica in 1070 during the Piast dynasty period, receiving its official town status in 1250.

Medieval guilds of bakers, weavers, potters, shoemakers, furriers, and tailors formed the economic backbone of this manufacturing center in Lower Silesia.

The municipality maintains strong transportation connections to neighboring towns, including Świdnica and Strzegom, through an established network of roads and railways.

Beer production became a central economic activity by the late 15th century, with numerous houses receiving brewing licenses throughout the town.
