Janówka [jaˈnufka]), is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Augustów, within Augustów County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, in north-eastern Poland. [1] It lies approximately 9 kilometres (6 mi) north-west of Augustów and 90 km (56 mi) north of the regional capital Białystok.
History
The local Catholic parish was founded in 1623 by Stanisław Rudomina Dusiacki. [2] In 1827 Janówka had a population of 225. [2]
