Nowogródek Pomorski [nɔvɔˈɡrudɛk pɔˈmɔrski] 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 12 kilometres (7 mi) east of Myślibórz and 64 km (40 mi) 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]
