Kiezmark [ˈkʲɛzmark] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Cedry Wielkie, within Gdańsk County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) east of Cedry Wielkie, 20 km (12 mi) east of Pruszcz Gdański, and 23 km (14 mi) south-east of the regional capital Gdańsk. It is situated on the Vistula river.

In October–December 1831, several Polish cavalry units of the November Uprising stopped in the village and its environs on the way to their final internment places.[2]
