Uniejowice, located on the border of the Kaczawskie Foothills and the Chojnów Plain, are part of a long, over thirteen-kilometer stretch of interconnected villages along the Skora River, including Pielgrzymka, Wojcieszyn, and Zagrodno. The village was first mentioned in 1268. and it was established as a chain village for agriculture, facilitated by the good soils developed on dust and glacial deposits. The Skora Valley within the village is cut up to 20 meters into the adjacent plateau, and the steep slopes that border the valley floor are quite rugged and intersected by short, dry ravines with characteristics of gullies, and even gorges.
In the riverbank slope above the Skora, there are exposed, in some places, sericite schists and phyllites dating back to the older Paleozoic era. To the west of the village, there is the forested Mnisza Górka (310 m), which is composed of basalts and is a remnant of an ancient volcano. In the central part of the village, there used to be a palace and park complex. However, the palace was abandoned after 1945 and fell into ruin before eventually being demolished. In the village, there is a private Museum of the Soviet Army and the People’s Army of Poland, which exhibits various items including weapons, uniform parts, documents, decorations, monuments, and plaques.
A few years ago, the Kindler vineyard began its operation, currently covering an area of approximately 0.8 hectares. The wines produced there, both red (Pinot Noir) and white (Chardonnay, Riesling, Solaris), have already gained a good reputation.
