Cisownica, Mountain village in Cieszyn County, Poland

Situated at an elevation of 380 meters, Cisownica extends along the slopes of Mała Czantoria mountain in the Silesian Beskids range.

The village name originates from taxus trees, which covered the area when it was first documented in Diocese of Wrocław records around 1305.

The Lutheran church, established as an independent parish in 1986, represents the strong Protestant heritage that characterizes the local community.

The village location provides access to multiple hiking trails leading to Mała Czantoria peak and connects to neighboring towns through regular public transport.

Local mines extracted siderite throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, with the final mining operation closing its doors in 1870.
