Zambrów, Administrative center in Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland

The city extends across 19 square kilometers of northeastern Poland, functioning as the capital of Zambrów County with 22,098 inhabitants in the urban area.

Zambrów received city rights under Chełmno law in 1430, developing into a regional center during the 15th and 16th centuries until the Swedish Deluge.

The town name originates from 'ząbr', indicating a gathering place for European bison, reflecting the natural heritage of the Podlaskie region.
