Kamińsk is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Górowo Iławeckie, within Bartoszyce County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland, close to the border with the Kaliningrad Oblast of Russia.[1] It lies approximately 7km (04miles) north of Górowo Iławeckie, 250NaN0 west of Bartoszyce, and 600NaN0 north of the regional capital Olsztyn.
During World War II, it was the location of the southern section of the German prisoner-of-war camp Stalag I-A, which initially held Polish POWs, and later also other Allied POWs.[2]
