Klimontów, Sandomierz County

Klimontów [kliˈmɔntuf] is a town in Sandomierz County, Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, in south-central Poland.

It was regained by Poles following the Austro-Polish War of 1809 and included within the short-lived Duchy of Warsaw, and after its dissolution in 1815, it became part of Russian-controlled Congress Poland.

Like several other locations in northern Lesser Poland, Klimontów lost its town charter after the January Uprising, in 1870.

Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, Klimontów was occupied by Germany.

[2] The Polish resistance movement was active in the town, and on March 4, 1943, the Jędrusie organization seized the German warehouses located in the abbey.
