The village is situated at the foot of Dubnakowa Mountain, and Łysula Mountain in the valley of the streams Krygowianka and Królówka.
In the center of the village is the church, which is a brick nave temple kept in the Baroque style, built between 1932 and 1934.
In the village there are several dozen oil wells, which now are largely liquidated.
