Nysa County, Administrative district in Opole Voivodeship, Poland.
Nysa County is an administrative district in southwestern Opole Voivodeship, positioned along the Czech Republic border. The area comprises nine municipalities spread across towns and villages with mixed urban and rural character.
The territory formed part of the Silesian region since medieval times and acquired its current administrative structure through reforms implemented in 1999. This reorganization created the nine municipalities that comprise it today.
The region reflects its Silesian roots through architecture and local customs that remain visible in town centers and village layouts today. Walking through older neighborhoods reveals this heritage in building styles and how communities are organized.
Nysa city functions as the administrative hub and serves as the natural base for exploring the district. Most smaller municipalities are connected by regional roads, though having personal transport helps move between towns more easily.
The district contains five principal towns, each with distinct economic roles, with Paczków distinguished by its medieval fortifications that survive today. This distributed settlement pattern gives each town a separate identity within the broader region.
