Nowogródek Pomorski is a village in Myślibórz County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-western Poland. It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Nowogródek Pomorski.[1]
It lies approximately 12km (07miles) east of Myślibórz and 640NaN0 south-east of the regional capital Szczecin.
The village has a population of 450.
When part of the Greater Poland province of the fragmented Polish realm, Duke Władysław Odonic granted the area to the Knights Templar in 1232.[2] An Early Gothic church was built in the village in the 13th century.[2] Once a town, it received town rights in 1317 and was deprived of them before 1500.[3] The village was heavily destroyed during the Thirty Years' War.[2]
The main landmark of Nowogródek Pomorski is the Gothic church of Our Lady Queen of Poland, which dates back to the 13th century.[2]
