Końskie

Końskie is a city in Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship in south-central Poland, spreading across rolling terrain dotted with parks and green spaces. A Gothic church rises at the center, marking the traditional heart of the urban area.

The settlement was founded in 1124 when Prandota of Prandocin held the land. It later gained city status during the 1700s under royal decree.

Saint Nicholas Church stands at the heart of town, blending Gothic and Romanesque architectural styles that reflect different periods of building. You can see these layers of history in the walls and details as you walk through the space.

The town serves as an administrative hub for the surrounding municipalities, providing basic services and facilities. Visitors can enjoy walks through parks and green spaces that make exploring the area pleasant.

During the 1700s, the name Końskie was directly linked to the area's economy based on horse breeding and trading. This activity shaped the early character of the settlement.
