Nowa Cerkiew is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Chojnice, within Chojnice County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 9km (06miles) east of Chojnice and 970NaN0 south-west of the regional capital Gdańsk. It is located within the historic region of Pomerania.
Nowa Cerkiew was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Człuchów County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.[2]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), the local Polish parish priest was arrested and then murdered by the Germans in a mass execution of Poles carried out in November 1939 in the so-called Valley of Death near Chojnice (see Intelligenzaktion).[3]
