Chełm Dolny [ˈxɛu̯m ˈdɔlnɨ] (German: Wartenberg) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Trzcińsko-Zdrój, within Gryfino County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 12 kilometres (7 mi) south of Trzcińsko-Zdrój, 44 km (27 mi) south of Gryfino, and 62 km (39 mi) south of the regional capital Szczecin.
Before 1945 the area was part of Germany. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration and ethnically cleansed according to the post-war Potsdam Agreement. The native German populace was expelled and replaced with Poles. For the history of the region, see History of Pomerania.
