Lubiszewo Tczewskie is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Tczew, within Tczew County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[2] It lies approximately 2km (01miles) south-west of Tczew and 320NaN0 south of the regional capital Gdańsk. It is located within the ethnocultural region of Kociewie in the historic region of Pomerania.

There is a historic Holy Trinity church in Lubiszewo Tczewskie, built about 1348.

Lubiszewo was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Tczew County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.[3]

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1941, the Germans expelled several Polish farmers from the village, whose farms were then handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[4]
