Starogard County, Administrative district in Pomeranian Voivodeship, northern Poland.
The territory encompasses 1,345 square kilometers with four main towns: Starogard Gdański, Skarszewy, Skórcz, and Czarna Woda distributed across thirteen administrative divisions.
The county emerged from the Polish local government reforms in 1999, integrating multiple municipalities into a consolidated administrative structure within the Pomeranian region.
The region maintains strong connections to the Kociewiacy ethnic group, whose traditional customs and linguistic heritage remain present throughout the local communities.
The county headquarters in Starogard Gdański serves 127,676 residents through administrative services, with direct transportation links to Gdańsk located 45 kilometers north.
The name combines Slavic elements 'stari' and 'gard', reflecting the area's historical function as an old fortified settlement in the Pomeranian language.
