City At Night

- a county (gmina or powiat) with a city charter;
- a city within a county, created by granting a city charter to a smaller town within a county.
These formal distinctions may differentiate larger towns from smaller ones (such as status as a separate powiat, or the conferring of the title prezydent on the mayor rather than burmistrz), but none of these is universally recognized as equivalent to the English city/town distinction.
Poland's largest cities are: Warsaw, Łódź, Kraków, Gdańsk, Poznań, Wrocław, Toruń, Lublin.
