## About

Piastów is a town immediately west of Warsaw in Masovian Voivodeship. Railway access helped it develop as an industrial and residential part of the capital’s metropolitan area.

## Notes

Distinguish the town from the Utrata river and other places of that name. Input label 'Пястув' is Ukrainian or indirect; local\_name gives the native spelling. The 1926 renaming is documented at https://dziennikustaw.gov.pl/MP/1926/s/24/65 .
