Ustroń () is a health resort town in Cieszyn Silesia, southern Poland, in the Silesian Voivodeship. It lies on the Silesian Beskids mountain range. The Równica and Czantoria mountains are nearby.
==History== thumb|left|Saint Anne church, before 1932 The settlement was first mentioned in a Latin document of Diocese of Wrocław called Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from around 1305 as item in Ustrona. It meant that the village was in the process of location (the size of land to pay a tithe from was not yet precise). The creation of the village was a part of a larger settlement campaign taking place in the late 13th century in the area that would later be known as Upper Silesia.
