Czarnogoździce [t͡ʂarnɔɡɔʑˈd͡ʑit͡sɛ] (German: Hohenwarte; until 1936: Zwornogoschütz) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Krośnice, within Milicz County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) south of Milicz, and 45 kilometres (28 mi) north-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.
