Gmina Świątniki Górne

Gmina Świątniki Górne is a municipality in Kraków County that covers about 20 square kilometers of rolling terrain and includes several connected villages. The area shows a mix of rural farmland and smaller built-up zones spread across the landscape south of the regional center.

The area developed from medieval settlements that once dotted the region into a modern administrative unit. The current municipal structure was created as part of local reorganization and now serves several thousand residents.

The municipality keeps local traditions alive through regular village celebrations and community meetings that bring together people from different settlements. These gatherings shape how people experience their neighborhoods and strengthen connections between families.

Visitors can access the municipal office, which provides administrative services and information to residents and newcomers. Public information is shared through an online portal that keeps everyone informed about local matters and announcements.

The municipality preserves a balance between rural farmland and small settlements, giving it a distinct character. Many visitors overlook that this area serves as a green buffer zone at the edge of a larger urban center.
