Gorlice, Municipality in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland
Located in southeastern Poland between the cities of Jasło and Nowy Sącz, Gorlice extends across hills near the Carpathian Mountains at 49.65 degrees north latitude.
Founded in 1354 during the reign of Casimir the Great, Gorlice developed into a regional center of trade and became part of the Habsburg Empire in 1772.
During the early 20th century, Gorlice maintained a substantial Jewish population of 3,000 people who contributed to the city's commercial and social development.
The municipality serves as an administrative center for Gorlice County, providing governmental services to residents of surrounding towns including Biecz and Bobowa.
The German Gorlice-Tarnów Offensive of World War I centered around this municipality, resulting in substantial changes to the regional military landscape.
