Bieńczyce, Administrative district XVI in Kraków, Poland.

The district spans 3.7 square kilometers and contains residential neighborhoods, parks, shopping centers, and transportation links across northern Kraków.

First documented in 1224, Bieńczyce began as a village with two mills along the Dłubnia River before becoming part of Kraków in 1951.

The Ark of the Lord church, constructed between 1967 and 1977, stands as a central religious structure where thousands gathered for monthly Fatima services.

Multiple public transportation routes connect Bieńczyce to central Kraków, while local facilities include schools, parks, and commercial areas for 42,633 residents.

The remains of railway bridges and tracks from the 1899 Kocmyrzów line still mark the landscape, near the preserved railway station on Stadionowa Street.
