Hajnówka, Administrative center in Podlaskie Voivodeship, Poland.
The town of Hajnówka stands at the entrance of Białowieża Forest, with the Leśna Prawa River flowing through its residential districts.
The settlement emerged in the 16th century when a royal officer named Hajno established a post to protect the extensive Białowieża Forest region.
The town maintains strong connections to Orthodox traditions, with Belarusians representing over one quarter of the local population in recent decades.
Hajnówka functions as the administrative seat of Hajnówka County, managing nine municipalities and coordinating regional development initiatives across 1,623 square kilometers.
The population of 21,442 residents sustains a multi-ethnic community where Polish and Belarusian languages coexist in daily communications.
