Gmina Lyski, Administrative district in Rybnik County, Poland
Gmina Lyski is a rural municipality in Rybnik County in southern Poland, encompassing several villages and natural areas across its territory. The administrative center serves the local population with municipal services and facilities.
The district took its current administrative form through Poland's territorial reforms of 1999, which reorganized local government structures. This restructuring integrated the area into the Silesian Voivodeship framework.
The area maintains active connections with Darkovice in the Czech Republic through formal partnership arrangements that bring neighboring communities together. This cross-border relationship shapes the local identity and creates ties that extend beyond national boundaries.
The administrative center is located roughly 13 kilometers west of Rybnik and serves the population with municipal services. The area is accessible to both residents and visitors seeking local government assistance or information.
The district partially incorporates the Rudy Landscape Park, integrating protected natural zones with residential and agricultural areas. This coexistence shows how nature protection and human activities can exist side by side in the same region.
