The landscape around Brzesko is gently rolling at the northern edge of the Carpathian foothills, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. The town lies near the Uszwica River in Lesser Poland, between the Kraków area and the hill country farther south. Brzesko is closely associated with Okocim Brewery, founded in 1845 by Johann Evangelist Goetz; brewing remains a defining part of its identity. In nearby Okocim, the former Goetz-Okocimski palace and its park recall the family behind the brewery’s development.
