Kadzewo [kaˈd͡zɛvɔ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Śrem, within Śrem County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in west-central Poland.[1]
History
Historical references to Kadzewo date back several centuries. The village was recorded in written sources as early as 1367, indicating medieval origins.[2] It functioned historically as a privately owned estate, passing through various noble families.[2] In the 19th century, it became associated with the Żółtowski family, a notable Polish landed family.[2] Like many Polish rural settlements, Kadzewo's history is believed to be tied to estate agriculture and aristocratic landownership patterns.[2]
Geography
Kadzewo lies in a predominantly agricultural region of western Poland. It is situated a few kilometers south of the town of Śrem and about 35-40 km south of Poznań, the regional capital, at an elevation of about 80-86 meters above sea level.[3] Nearby localities include villages such as Nochówko, Wyrzeka, and Bodzyniewo.[3] Administratively, Poland is divided into voivodeships (provinces), counties, and gminas (municipalities); Kadzewo falls at the lowest level within this structure.[3]
