Nowogrodziec, Historical municipality in Lower Silesian Voivodeship, Poland
Nowogrodziec stands on the eastern bank of the Kwisa River, surrounded by rolling hills at an elevation of 180 meters above sea level.
Duke Henry I the Bearded established the settlement in 1233, granting it Magdeburg town rights and designating eleven villages to be founded on cleared land.
The town maintains its medieval urban layout with a central market square, dominated by the Baroque church of Saints Peter and Paul.
The municipality lies 15 kilometers southwest of Bolesławiec and 116 kilometers west of Wrocław, connected by regional transport networks.
A historical Polish-Saxon milestone from 1725, commissioned by King Augustus II the Strong, marks the town's position on the ancient Via Regia trade route.
