Książ Wielkopolski, Administrative center in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland

Książ Wielkopolski encompasses an area of 1.96 square kilometers within Śrem County, maintaining a population of 2,738 residents in west-central Poland.

The settlement received its first documented mention in 1193 through a papal bull from Pope Celestine III, later becoming a castellany seat by 1273.

The town conducts the Zaduszki Muzyczne musical events and organizes celebrations for National Independence Day on November 11 with flag displays throughout streets.

The municipality provides governmental services, waste management facilities, and spatial information systems for residents within the Greater Poland Voivodeship region.

German occupiers renamed the town to Tiefenbach and later Schonz between 1940 and 1945, attempting to remove its Polish identity during World War II.
