Parzyce [paˈʐɨt͡sɛ] (German: Paritz) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Nowogrodziec, within Bolesławiec County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] Prior to 1945 it was in Germany. It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) north of Nowogrodziec, 14 km (9 mi) west of Bolesławiec, and 117 km (73 mi) west of the regional capital Wrocław.

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.
