Wierzbno

Wierzbno is a toponym used for several places in Poland. The name derives from the Polish word wierzba, meaning willow, with the suffix -no, which often denotes a place associated with willows. The best-known instance is a village in the Masovian Voivodeship in east-central Poland, where it forms part of the local administrative landscape. In addition to this village, the name is used for several smaller settlements and districts within various gminas across the country. Because Polish administrative boundaries can change, the exact status and boundaries of places named Wierzbno may vary over time. The name reflects a common pattern in Polish place-naming, where local vegetation or landscape features are embedded in toponyms. As a result, Wierzbno appears in multiple regional contexts, each with its own local history and governance. For readers seeking a specific Wierzbno, identifying the accompanying county or gmina helps distinguish among the different locations that share the name.
