Sławęcin [swaˈvɛnt͡ɕin] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Grabów, within Łęczyca County, Łódź Voivodeship, in central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 5 kilometres (3 mi) east of Grabów, 13 km (8 mi) north-west of Łęczyca, and 47 km (29 mi) north-west of the regional capital Łódź.

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1942, the occupiers carried out expulsions of Poles, who were then either deported to forced labour in Germany and German-occupied France or enslaved as forced labour to serve new German colonists in the area.[2]
