Kijewo [kiˈjɛvɔ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Środa Wielkopolska, within Środa County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in west-central Poland.[1]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), on September 17, 1939, the Gestapo murdered 21 Poles from the neighbouring town of Środa Wielkopolska in the village.[2]
In 2017 and 2018 parts of the village were included within the town limits of Środa Wielkopolska.[3][4]
