Rawa Mazowiecka is a town in central Poland, capital of Rawa County in the Łódź Voivodeship, first mentioned in records in 1228 and granted town rights in 1321. It served as a medieval ducal seat and royal city, and from 1562 hosted the Rawa Treasury, which helped finance the Polish army. The town later became a nineteenth century cloth manufacturing center and today has light industry and food processing; roughly sixty percent of its buildings were left in ruins after the Second World War. As of the end of 2022 it had 16,090 inhabitants.
