Gmina Andrychów, Urban-rural municipality in Wadowice County, Poland

Gmina Andrychów encompasses a territory of 100 square kilometers, combining the central town of Andrychów with seven surrounding villages in southern Poland.

The settlement originated in the late 13th century under the name Henrychów, receiving its official town charter from King Stanisław August Poniatowski in 1767.

The area developed into a textile manufacturing center after skilled weavers from Silesia, Belgium, and Saxony settled in the region during the 18th century.

The municipality connects to major cities through national road 52 between Kraków and Bielsko-Biała, with regular bus services operating throughout the district.

The territory maintains an equal population distribution between urban and rural areas, with approximately 21,000 residents in each sector.
