Kwidzyn County, Administrative territory in Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland
Kwidzyn County is an administrative territory in the Pomeranian Voivodeship spanning around 834 square kilometers with multiple towns and rural municipalities. The landscape includes forests, rivers, and farmland interspersed with both urban and village communities.
The county was established in 1999 during a major reorganization of Polish administrative boundaries that combined previously separate jurisdictions. This restructuring reshaped local governance and aligned administrative divisions with contemporary needs.
The region hosts museums and cultural centers spread across its towns and villages that display local art and traditional crafts. You can find exhibitions showing how people in these communities lived and worked.
The territory is easily accessible from larger cities to the north like Gdansk, with well-developed roads connecting its various communities. The county seat of Kwidzyn serves as a natural transportation hub for the region.
At the heart of Kwidzyn stands a 14th century brick castle that remains well preserved and continues to function as a museum. The structure houses regional artifacts and documents that tell the story of the area's past.
