Stawiszyn, Municipality in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland
Stawiszyn stands in central Poland, north of Kalisz city, covering less than one square kilometer of land area in the Kalisz County region.
German forces renamed the settlement to Stavensheim in 1943 during World War II as part of their systematic efforts to remove Polish identity.
The Jewish cemetery in nearby Stary Kiączyn contains 39 gravestones with Hebrew inscriptions and plant motifs dating from the 18th and 19th centuries.
The municipality functions as the center of Gmina Stawiszyn, located 18 kilometers north of Kalisz and 98 kilometers southeast of regional capital Poznań.
With an area of 0.99 square kilometers, this municipality holds the distinction of being the smallest town by geographical size in Poland.
