Żarnowiec, Rural settlement in Silesian Voivodeship, Poland
The village stands in the northeastern section of Silesian Voivodeship, stretching along the Pilica River amid the hills of Kraków-Częstochowa Upland.
The Chronicle of Gallus Anonymus first mentioned Żarnowiec in 1098, documenting an encounter between Prince Władysław I Herman and his sons.
The village contains a 14th-century parish church and the Tadeusz Kościuszko Mound, constructed in 1918 to honor Polish national heritage.
The settlement functions as the administrative center of Gmina Żarnowiec within Zawiercie County, providing essential services to surrounding communities.
A monument in the village commemorates Joel Barlow, an American diplomat who died in Żarnowiec in 1812 during his travels.
