Górzyca, Village in Lubusz Voivodeship, Poland

Górzyca sits at an elevation of 70 meters above sea level, positioned along the Oder River near the German border at coordinates 52.494722N, 14.655E.

The settlement received its first written mention in 1252 and became an episcopal see of the Bishops of Lebus in 1276, establishing a sanctuary of Virgin Mary.

The village maintains strong connections to both Polish and German heritage due to its location on the border, influencing local traditions and daily life.

Górzyca serves as the administrative center of Gmina Górzyca district, situated 18 kilometers north of Słubice and 49 kilometers southwest of Gorzów Wielkopolski.

The village experienced a complete population exchange in June 1945 when German residents were relocated and Polish settlers moved into the area.
