Świętno (pronounced as /pl/) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wolsztyn, within Wolsztyn County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in west-central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 12km (07miles) south of Wolsztyn and 730NaN0 south-west of the regional capital Poznań. The village was home to the Free State of Schwenten for seven months in 1919.
During the German evacuation from occupied Poland in the final stages of World War II, in January 1945, a German-perpetrated death march of Jewish women from a just dissolved subcamp of the Gross-Rosen concentration camp in Sława passed through the village.[2]
