Kujawsko-Pomorskie Voivodship (in Polish Województwo Kujawsko-Pomorskie) is an administrative region, or voivodship, in central-northern Poland.
Its capital cities are Bydgoszcz and Toruń.
Kujawy-Pomorze Voivodship was created on January 1, 1999, out of the former Bydgoszcz, Toruń and Włocławek voivodships, pursuant to the Local Government Reorganization Act of 1998. The voivodship's name recalls the two historic regions of Pomorze and Kujawy.
