Pieńsk ((ドイツ語:Penzig)) is a town in Zgorzelec County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland. It is the seat of the administrative district (gmina) called Gmina Pieńsk, and stands on the east bank of the Lusatian Neisse river, which forms the border between Poland and Germany. (For more information about the history of the region, see Lusatia.) The town lies approximately north of Zgorzelec, and west of the regional capital Wrocław. As of 2006, it has a population of 5,799. == History == The Upper Lusatian lords of Penzig, the ''Herren von Penzig'', are first recorded in 1241. Besides Penzig in Upper Lusatia the family held a number of other towns and territories on both banks of the Neiße river. In 1491 the city of Görlitz purchased the ''Penziger Heide'' (parts of the territory of Penzig) and combined it as ''Görlitzer Heide'' with its own communal territory. In 1945 the Oder-Neiße line became the dividing line between Germany and Poland, leaving Penzig, now Piensk, in Poland. The native German populace was expelled and replaced with Poles. At present the historical Lusatian territory of Piensk is administered by the Lower Silesian Voivodeship. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pieńsk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
