Kcynia, Municipality in Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland

Kcynia lies in the Pałuki ethnographic region of north-central Poland, with coordinates at 52°59′31″N 17°29′4″E and a population of 4,702 inhabitants.

The town received municipal rights in 1262 from Bolesław the Pious, granting privileges similar to those of Poznań and Gniezno at that time.

The Gothic Church of Saint Michael Archangel and Baroque Church of the Assumption of Mary with its Carmelite monastery represent religious architectural heritage.

The railway connection established in 1888 continues to serve as a transportation link between Kcynia and surrounding regions of Poland.

In 1441, after destruction by fire, the town rebuilt with defensive walls and a castle that became the residence of local starosts.
