Santok, Administrative village in Lubusz Voivodeship, Poland

Located at the meeting point of the Noteć and Warta rivers, Santok extends along a 3-kilometer road east of Gorzów Wielkopolski.

Archaeological excavations reveal twelve distinct settlement layers from the 8th to 14th centuries, marking Santok's evolution as a border fortress.

During the Piast dynasty, Santok developed into a castellany and served as a defense point between the Polish kingdom and Duchy of Pomerania.

The village functions as the administrative center for Gmina Santok district, which encompasses fifteen surrounding settlements and communities.

The settlement changed ownership multiple times between Poland, Brandenburg, and the Teutonic Order through medieval marriage alliances and military conflicts.
