Borek is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Deszczno, within Gorzów County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 5km (03miles) east of Deszczno and 110NaN0 south-east of Gorzów Wielkopolski.
The area became part of the emerging Polish state in the 10th century. Following Poland's fragmentation, it formed part of the Duchy of Greater Poland. Later on, the area passed to Brandenburg, Bohemia (Czechia), Prussia, and Germany. Following Germany's defeat in World War II in 1945, the area became again part of Poland.
