Drążdżewo Nowe [drɔ̃ʐˈd͡ʐɛvɔ ˈnɔvɛ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Jednorożec, within Przasnysz County, Masovian Voivodeship, in east-central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) east of Jednorożec, 20 km (12 mi) north-east of Przasnysz, and 102 km (63 mi) north of Warsaw.
Drążdżewo Nowe (New Drążdżewo or New Brushwood) was a privately-owned settlement already existing in 1386. However, the site already had previously contained a number of small villages, but only Drążdżewo Nowe (New Drążdżewo) now survives.
The word drążdżewo is derived from the word drzążdż (Proto-Slavonic dręzga), meaning brushwood. The settlement, at times, has also been known as Draszewo and, later, also as Drasdzew, Drzanzewo, and Drzązewo.
A post-World War I census, taken in 1921, recorded 25 homes and 145 inhabitants living in the village.
The village is incorporated under the municipality of Gmina Jednorożec, which was established in 1867. [2]
