Potulice is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Lipka, within Złotów County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in north-central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 7km (04miles) south-west of Lipka, 150NaN0 north-east of Złotów, and 1200NaN0 north of the regional capital Poznań.
The territory became a part of the emerging Polish state under its first historic ruler Mieszko I in the 10th century. Potulice was a private village of Polish nobility, administratively located in the Nakło County in the Kalisz Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province.[2] It was annexed by Prussia in the First Partition of Poland in 1772, and from 1871 to 1945 it was also part of Germany. During World War II, the Germans operated a forced labour subcamp of the Stalag II-B prisoner-of-war camp for Allied POWs in the village.[3]
