Bolesławów, Lower Silesian Voivodeship

The village of Bolesławów sits at an elevation of 595 meters in the Kłodzko County, surrounded by the rolling landscapes of southwestern Poland.

Initially granted town status in 1581, Bolesławów developed into a metal mining center during the 16th century before losing its town rights in 1894.

The Baroque Saint Joseph Church stands as the central religious structure in Bolesławów, with statues of Francis Xavier and John of Nepomuk decorating the village.

Bolesławów is located 5 kilometers south of Stronie Śląskie, 27 kilometers southeast of Kłodzko, and 98 kilometers south of the regional capital Wrocław.

The village formed part of an estate owned by Princess Marianne of the Netherlands in 1838, marking an unexpected Dutch connection in Silesian history.
