Brzezimierz [bʐɛˈʑimjɛʂ] (German: Wüstebriese) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Domaniów, within Oława County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) east of Domaniów, 9 kilometres (6 mi) south-west of Oława, and 29 kilometres (18 mi) south-east of the regional capital Wrocław.
