Opatkowice

Opatkowice is a Polish toponym used by several settlements in Poland. The name is derived from the word abbot (opat) and the suffix -owice, a common element in Polish village names that indicates a connection to a group or estate historically associated with the site. As a result, Opatkowice typically denotes places that were once associated with a monastery, abbey, or religious community.

Today, there are multiple villages and settlements bearing the name across different regions of Poland. They are generally small rural communities that form part of larger administrative units. Most Opatkowice locations are administratively classified as villages and are situated within a gmina (municipality), which is in turn part of a county (powiat) and voivodeship (province). The local economies are predominantly agricultural, though some Opatkowice areas are integrated into peri-urban or suburban zones near larger towns and cities.

The specific characteristics of each Opatkowice—such as population, historic sites, and local governance—vary by location. Because several places share the same name, precise information typically requires specifying the corresponding voivodeship or county.
