Wojsławice [vɔi̯swaˈvit͡sɛ] (German: Eibendorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Niemcza, within Dzierżoniów County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] 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.

It lies approximately 2 km (1 mi) east of Niemcza, 22 km (14 mi) east of Dzierżoniów, and 48 km (30 mi) south of the regional capital Wrocław.
