Stójków [ˈstui̯kuf] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Lądek-Zdrój, within Kłodzko County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1]
It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) south of Lądek-Zdrój, 22 kilometres (14 mi) south-east of Kłodzko, and 91 kilometres (57 mi) south of the regional capital Wrocław.
On 20 August 1946, the village was destroyed by an extremely intense tornado. The European Severe Storms Laboratory officially rated the tornado F3 on the Fujita scale, however, an academically peer-reviewed, published paper in 2017 rated the tornado F3/F4.[2]
