Gmina Pawłowice, Rural municipality in Pszczyna County, Poland.

The municipality spans across 75 square kilometers of southern Poland, containing seven distinct villages including Golasowice, Jarząbkowice, and Krzyżowice with Pawłowice as its center point.

The first documentation of Pawłowice appeared in 1281, and in 1517 the Thurzó family acquired the land from Casimir II, Duke of Cieszyn under specific territorial agreements.

The municipality maintains active international connections through established partnerships with communities in Hungary, Slovakia, and France, fostering regular cultural exchanges among residents.

The municipal administration operates from its headquarters in Pawłowice village, managing services for 18,171 residents across all seven settlements within its jurisdiction.

The region experienced a defining moment in 1921 when 74 percent of inhabitants voted for Polish incorporation during the Upper Silesia plebiscite.
