Przechód is a village located in the Nysa district, in the Korfantów municipality, in the Prudnik land. It lies on the Ścinawa Niemodlińska river, in a place surrounded by the Niemodlin Forest (Bór Niemodliński) – the largest forest complex in the Opole Voivodeship. The village is classified as a so-called ribbon village (ulicówka), with farmsteads on both sides of the street, with hamlets and an open-field layout. The area occupied by the village is mostly flat, with slight elevations. The name of the town derives from the word "przechód", meaning a passage. In written sources, the town is mentioned for the first time in the register of endowments of the Wrocław diocese in the Opole archdeaconry, prepared in the years 1303–1306, during the times of Bishop Henryk from Wierzbno. From the beginning of its existence, Przechód was a church village, situated on the border of the Niemodlin and Prudnik lands. Since medieval times, the village population was engaged in, among other things, agriculture, animal breeding, logging, and the forestry industry, mainly the production of tar in the process of destructive distillation of wood, as well as the production of charcoal. After World War II, the village found itself within the borders of the Polish state.
Among the historic objects in the village is the parish church of St. John the Baptist, dating from the end of the 18th century.
