==History== From the 5th century BC until the 10th century, Yotvingians, a Baltic tribe close to the Lithuanians, lived in the areas around Ciechanowiec. From the 13th–14th centuries until 1513, the lands belonged to the Trakai Voivodeship of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Then, they were part of the Podlaskie Voivodeship from 1513 until 1795 (1513–1569 as part of Lithuania and 1569–1795 as part of the Kingdom of Poland in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth).
