Few cities in Opole Voivodeship have a history as closely tied to papermaking as Krapkowice. Situated where the Osobłoga joins the Oder, the town lies in a river landscape between Opole and Upper Silesia. Today’s Krapkowice incorporates the formerly separate towns of Krapkowice and Otmęt, united administratively in 1961; the older centre retains a compact layout around its market square. Paper production remains an important part of the local economy, while the Oder valley brings together farmland, woodland and riverside settlements typical of Opole Silesia.
