Mława

Mława is a city in Masovian Voivodeship in east-central Poland and serves as the administrative center for a county containing urban and rural municipalities. The region comprises several distinct communities that together form a coordinated local government system.

The current administrative structure was established in 1999 following reforms of Polish local government that reorganized regional districts. This restructuring was part of a broader decentralization movement across the country.

The local government structure incorporates both urban and rural communities, with 31,241 residents in the central area and 41,665 in surrounding regions.

Visitors will find an administrative center that serves as the focal point for regional matters. It is worthwhile to explore the mixed structure of the city and surrounding villages to understand the rural character of the area.

Each gmina within Mława County maintains distinct dimensions, from Gmina Strzegowo at 214 square kilometers to Gmina Dzierzgowo at 150 square kilometers.
