Bogatynia, Border town in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland
The town extends through a narrow strip of land between Germany and the Czech Republic, forming Poland's Turoszow panhandle at 245 meters elevation.
Established in the 13th century as Richnow, the settlement grew along a trade route connecting Dresden to Swidnica until the Hussites caused destruction.
The Koziolek Matolek Tournament of Liars brings participants together to compete in telling improbable stories during annual town celebrations.
Two major employers, the Turow Coal Mine and the Turow Power Station, provide employment opportunities for more than 5,500 local residents.
The Miedzianka stream flood of 2010 reshaped the town center, leading to extensive reconstruction efforts that changed the urban landscape.
