Nowogródek Pomorski [nɔvɔˈɡrudɛk pɔˈmɔrski] (German: Neuenburg) is a village in Myślibórz County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-western Poland. It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Nowogródek Pomorski.[1] It lies approximately 12 kilometres (7 mi) east of Myślibórz and 64 km (40 mi) south-east of the regional capital Szczecin.
