Koszęcin, Village administrative center in Silesian Voivodeship, Poland

The settlement was founded in 1277 under Piast dynasty rule and later came under Bohemian, Prussian, and German administration. It eventually returned to Polish control and has remained part of Poland since.
The Holy Trinity Church and Sacred Heart Church anchor the village and reflect deep religious roots in the community. A former palace nearby now preserves local traditions and stories for visitors to discover.
The village is accessible via two regional roads and has a train station for rail connections. The area is flat and straightforward to explore on foot or by bicycle.
Part of the municipality extends into the Upper Liswarta Forests landscape park, a protected natural area with original forest coverage. These green spaces offer walkers routes to explore beyond the village center.
