Powidz, Greater Poland Voivodeship, Administrative village in Greater Poland Voivodeship, Poland
Located 68 kilometers east of Poznań, Powidz stands near a protected natural area within the Powidz Landscape Park along the western Polish plains.
The settlement received town rights from Duke Bolesław the Pious in 1243 and maintained its status as a royal town within the Polish Crown.
The village established an educational institution connected to the Kraków Academy during the 15th century, contributing to regional academic development.
The 33rd Air Base near Powidz functions as a storage facility for U.S. Army combat vehicles through a NATO-funded program valued at 210 million dollars.
