Knaj
Knaj is a hamlet of Drogomyśl in the administrative district of Gmina Strumień, within Cieszyn County, Silesian Voivodeship, in southern Poland. It lies approximately south of Strumień, north-east of Cieszyn, and south-west of the regional capital Katowice.
The settlement originated as a folwark, mentioned in 1722 as zum vorwerg Knay. It lies on the Knajka stream and on the southern outskirts of Kniejski Las. All this names are derived from a word knieja denoting a wild, dense forest. In 1735 Knaj was adjoined to a Catholic parish in Pruchna. Later it became a part of the modern municipality of Drogomyśl.
