Gmina Babice, Rural municipality in Chrzanów County, Poland.

The municipality extends across 54 square kilometers of diverse terrain, encompassing eight villages and settlements within the Lesser Poland Voivodeship administrative boundaries.

The medieval Lipowiec Castle, constructed in the late 13th century, served as both a defensive structure and a detention facility for religious reformers.

The Nadwiślański Ethnographic Park in Wygiełzów presents collections of traditional wooden structures and artifacts illustrating rural life from the 18th and 19th centuries.

Located 36 kilometers west of Kraków and connected to major cycling routes, the municipality provides access to numerous outdoor activities and natural reserves.

The Lipowiec and Bukowica nature reserves protect sections of Carpathian beech forests and contain geological formations specific to this region.
