Dąbrowo [dɔmˈbrɔvɔ] (German: Heinrichswalde) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Grunwald, within Ostróda County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1]

Before 1945 the village was part of Germany (East Prussia) and known as Heinrichswalde. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration by the Potsdam Agreement under territorial changes demanded by the Soviet Union. Most Germans fled or were expelled and replaced with Poles expelled from the Polish areas annexed by the Soviet Union.
