Sulejów is a town in central Poland with 6,130 inhabitants. It is situated in Łódź Voivodeship. Sulejów gives its name to the protected area known as Sulejów Landscape Park. The origins of Sulejów are associated with a village founded near the crossing of the Pilica river in the 12th century. The castle, which later sparked the development of a Cistercian abbey, was built between 1176 and 1177, on the orders of Duke Casimir II the Just. The abbey was constructed in the place which is now called Podklasztorze. Sulejów received its town rights in the middle of the 13th century, later confirmed by King Władysław I the Elbow-high.
