Radom County, Administrative district in Masovian Voivodeship, Poland.
Radom County is an administrative district in the Masovian Voivodeship located in east-central Poland. It comprises smaller cities like Pionki, Iłża, and Skaryszew, along with numerous rural municipalities that surround the city of Radom.
The area developed from medieval castle administrative structures and became defined as a territorial unit in the Radom region. Its modern form took shape during the 19th and 20th centuries through various administrative reforms.
The region preserves rural traditions and local crafts visible in its smaller settlements and villages. Visitors can find old churches and community gathering places where traditional ways still shape daily life.
The county administration operates from Radom city, though the city itself functions as an independent administrative entity separate from the county. Exploring the region by car is recommended, as the municipalities are spread across relatively flat terrain with limited public transportation links.
Radom city sits within the county's boundaries but operates as a self-governing entity completely separate from the county administration. This creates an unusual geographic arrangement where the main city is administratively distinct from the surrounding municipalities.
