Kłodzko

Eastern Europe

Klodzko is a historic town in southwestern Poland, in the Lower Silesia region, with about 25,700 inhabitants at the 2021 census. It sits at the center of the Klodzko Valley on the Eastern Neisse river and serves as the seat of Klodzko County. Established in the 10th century and granted city rights in 1233, it is one of the oldest towns in Poland and is sometimes called Little Prague for its historical architecture; though administratively part of Silesia since 1763, it is culturally and traditionally considered part of Bohemia.
