Magnuszowiczki [maɡnuʂɔˈvit͡ʂki] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Niemodlin in Opole County, Opole Voivodeship in southwestern Poland.[1]
The village's history dates back to medieval Poland. Before 1945 it was part of Germany. During World War II, from 1940 to 1944, a Nazi German forced labour camp for Jews, and initially also Poles, was located there.[2][3] There is a memorial at the site.
