Masurian Lakeland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Masurian Lakeland (Polish: Pojezierze Mazurskie, German: Masurische Seenlandschaft) is a lake district in northeastern Poland, containing more than 2,000 lakes.
It extends roughly 290 km (180 mi) eastwards from the lower Vistula River to the Poland-Lithuania border and occupies an area of roughly 52,000 km² (20,000 sq mi). Administratively, the lakeland area is contained within the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (from the 13th century until 1945 part of East Prussia), with small parts of it being a part of Masovian and Podlachian Voivodeships.
