Kobylnica [2] is a village in Słupsk County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland. It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Kobylnica.[3] It lies approximately 4km (02miles) south-west of Słupsk and 1070NaN0 west of the regional capital Gdańsk.
The name of the town comes from the Polish word kobyła, which means "mare", with the suffix -nica being common for various towns and settlements in Poland.[4]
The territory became part of the emerging Polish state in the 10th century, and after its fragmentation into smaller duchies at various times it was ruled by dukes from the houses of Griffin, Sobiesław and Piast. From the 18th century, it formed part of Prussia, and from 1871 also of Germany. After the defeat of Germany in World War II in 1945, it passed again to Poland.
