Żyrardów County, Administrative district in Masovian Voivodeship, Poland.
Żyrardów County is an administrative district in Masovian Voivodeship with two main cities: Żyrardów and Mszczonów. The district comprises five gminas that combine urban centers with rural settlements and forested regions.
The district took its current administrative form in 1999 following a major Polish government reform. This reorganization established the regional boundaries that remain today.
The region is shaped by its ties to textile production and industrial heritage. Visitors can still see how this past influences the character of local communities.
The area is easily accessible by local buses and roads connecting the cities and villages throughout. Visiting during warmer months makes exploring the forested zones and rural settlements more comfortable.
The area is home to Puszcza Mariańska, a forested gmina with multiple protected natural reserves and traditional rural villages. This zone offers a rare blend of natural conservation and active rural life.
