National road 1 (Polish: Droga krajowa nr 1) is a route in the Polish national road network. The highway connects the northern and southern regions of Poland, running from Gdańsk to Cieszyn at the Czech border, traversing the Pomeranian, Kuyavian-Pomeranian, Łódź and Silesian voivodeships. National road 1 is a component of European highway E75. From Piotrków Trybunalski to Katowice, it is part of the Gierkówka route, and it has four bridges over the Vistula river.
Currently, construction efforts for the A1 motorway run parallel to or along older sections of the highway. Upon the A1 motorway's completion, the current road 1 will be largely superseded.
