Gorzyczki is a village in Gmina Gorzyce, Wodzisław County, Silesian Voivodeship in southern Poland. It is situated on the border with the Czech Republic, 10 kilometers south from the county seat Wodzisław Śląski.
The A1 motorway, which runs from the port city of Gdańsk in the north, ends on the border in Gorzyczki, where it is connected to the Czech D1 motorway.
In the Middle Ages, Gorzyczki was part of Piast-ruled Poland and was the location of a motte-and-bailey castle.[1] It is an archaeological site at which traces of human activity from the Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age, and antiquity were found.[1]
During the German occupation (World War II), it was the location of the Polenlager 169, a concentration camp for Poles.[2] It held the expelled Poles who didn't sign a volkslist. It was operated on the base of the "Fryderyk" coal mine facilities in 1942 - 1945 in Kolonia Fryderyk.[3]
