Guszczewina, Rural village in Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland
Guszczewina stands in northeastern Poland with traditional wooden houses scattered along unpaved roads surrounded by fields and forests.
German forces evacuated the entire population in August 1941 during operations in Białowieża Forest due to suspected connections with resistance fighters.
The village maintains both Orthodox and Catholic religious traditions, with residents attending services at Saint Nicholas Church and Saint John the Baptist Church in Narewka.
The village, inhabited by 85 residents as of 2021, uses the postal code 17-220 and follows Central European Time with daylight saving adjustments.
Local residents traditionally communicate in Belarusian dialect, while younger generations increasingly adopt Polish as their primary language of communication.
