Banie [ˈbaɲe] (German Bahn) is a village in Gryfino County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-western Poland. It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Banie.[1] It lies approximately 21 kilometres (13 mi) south-east of Gryfino and 36 km (22 mi) south of the regional capital Szczecin.
