Bukowsko, Administrative village in Subcarpathian Voivodeship, Poland.

The village extends across 8.3 square kilometers of the Bukowsko Upland mountains, at an elevation of 482 meters above sea level.

In 1946, Bukowsko experienced severe destruction when 389 of its 400 buildings were burned during conflicts between Ukrainian nationalists and German forces.

The name originates from the Slavic word 'buk' meaning beech, reflecting the surrounding beech woodlands that characterize the local landscape.

Bukowsko connects to Slovakia through a railroad system and functions as the administrative center for multiple surrounding communities in Sanok County.

The local Catholic cemetery contains gravestones with Cyrillic inscriptions, demonstrating the historical presence of Polish and Rusyn communities in the region.
