Uście Solne, Historic village in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland.

The village sits at the meeting point of the Raba and Vistula rivers within Brzesko County, surrounded by agricultural lands and traditional buildings.

King Kazimierz Wielki granted town rights to Uście Solne in 1360, establishing it as a vital salt trading port for the Bochnia salt mines.

Three former rectors of the Jagiellonian University in Kraków originated from this small village, demonstrating its educational legacy in medieval times.

The village maintains earth fortifications near the former salt warehouses, accessible through regional bus connections from Brzesko and surrounding towns.

Medieval traces remain visible in the large market square layout and remnants of the town hall from when Uście Solne served as a salt trading center.
