Częstocice [t͡ʂɛ̃stɔˈt͡ɕit͡sɛ] (German: Günthersdorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wiązów, within Strzelin County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 5 kilometres (3 mi) east of Wiązów, 15 kilometres (9 mi) east of Strzelin, and 38 kilometres (24 mi) south-east of the regional capital Wrocław.

Prior to 1945 it was in 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.
