The neighboring towns are Kunkowa in the north, Nowica in the northeast, Kwiatoń in the southeast, Hańczowa in the south, Stawisza in the southwest, and Klimkówka and Czarna in the northwest.
history
The place was founded in the early 15th century by the noble Gładysz family and was first mentioned in documents in 1413. The name Uście is a form of the Polish word ujście (mouth), only in the 17th century the adjective Wołoskie was added, replaced by Ruskie in the next century , from 1952 Gorlickie . In 1504 Grzegorz Juszkiewicz was granted the privilege to re-establish the place. The place was on the trade route from Biecz to Bardejov and from 1557 customs could be taken there. An Orthodox parish was established after 1539.
The place initially belonged to the Kingdom of Poland (from 1569 aristocratic republic Poland-Lithuania ), Krakow Voivodeship , Biecz district . During the first partition of Poland , Uście Gorlickie came to the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire in 1772 (from 1804). In the late 18th century, Uście became a town. From 1855 the place belonged to the Gorlice district .
In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Uście Gorlickie came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II .
In 1921 there were 639 Greek Catholics, 216 Roman Catholics and 15 Israelites. In 1947 the Lemken were expelled as part of the Vistula campaign . Many came back after 1956. To this day, Uście Gorlickie is the only place in the Lower Beskids with a Lemk majority.
From 1975 to 1998 Uście Gorlickie was part of the Krosno Voivodeship .
