Antoniów is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Stara Kamienica, within Jelenia Góra County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1]
It lies approximately 5km (03miles) south-west of Stara Kamienica, 16km (10miles) west of Jelenia Góra, and 111km (69miles) west of the regional capital Wrocław.
During World War II, the Germans established and operated a forced labour camp in the village, in which they imprisoned Italian and Soviet prisoners of war.[2] The prisoners lived and worked in poor sanitary conditions, and were forced to exhausting labour.[2]
