Suchowola, Municipality in Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland
Suchowola stretches across both banks of the Olszanka River in northeastern Poland, within Sokółka County, 31 miles north of Białystok.
The settlement received its town privileges in 1777, developing from a 16th-century foundation into a royal town of the Polish crown.
The town held a substantial Jewish population until World War II, with historical records indicating 1,944 Jewish residents in 1900.
The Jewish cemetery, spanning 2.5 hectares in the northern section near the Olszanka River, remains accessible through agricultural lands.
Royal astronomer Szymon Antoni Sobiekrajski determined in 1775 that Suchowola marks the geographical center of Europe.
