Excerpt: D bowiec ( listen) (German: , Czech: ) is a village and the seat of Gmina D bowiec, Cieszyn County in Silesian Voivodeship, southern Poland. It has an area of 13.17 square kilometres (5.08 sq mi) and a population of 1,772 (2007). It lies on the geographical border between Silesian Foothills, Ostrava Basin and O wi cim Basin, on the Knajka river, left tributary of the Vistula, in the historical region of Cieszyn Silesia. Along Knajka river there are located many fish ponds.

Lutherans built a cemetery chapel in 1912. New building of the school was opened in 1908, to celebrate 60 years of the rules of Franz Joseph I of Austria. According to the Austrian census of 1910 the village had 984 inhabitants, 977 of whom had permanent residence there.
