Gmina Strzegom

Gmina Strzegom is an administrative municipality in south-western Poland that includes the city of Strzegom and 19 surrounding villages. The area spans 144.71 square kilometers (55.85 square miles) in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, mixing urban and countryside landscapes.

The area formed through centuries of administrative shifts under Polish, German, and Czech rule. These complex changes shaped the boundaries and structure of the municipality we see today.

The area keeps Silesian traditions alive through local festivals and customs that blend Polish, German, and Czech influences. You can see this mix in how people gather and celebrate together throughout the year.

The administrative center sits roughly 15 kilometers north-west of Świdnica and 52 kilometers west of Wrocław, accessible by regional roads. Local buses connect the towns and villages, making it easy to explore the area on foot or by car.

Granite quarries here produce high-quality stone used in construction projects across Poland and neighboring European countries. This stone extraction has shaped the local economy and landscape.
