Boronów is a village in Lubliniec County, Silesian Voivodeship, in southern Poland. It is (since 1993) the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Boronów. The village lies on the Liswarta river. Between 1975 and 1998 it was in the former Częstochowa Voivodeship.
The name Boronów originates from the coniferous forests (pl bory) in the area or from the surname Boronowski, who was one of owners of this village. In old chronicles the names Borunow and Bornów are found. But on the herb of Boronów there is a harrow, because it was a sign on the old village's stamp.
