Dąbrówka Nowa [dɔmˈbrufka ˈnɔva] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Sicienko, within Bydgoszcz County, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 3 kilometres (2 mi) south-east of Sicienko and 14 km (9 mi) north-west of Bydgoszcz.

History

During the German occupation (World War II), in 1941, the occupiers carried out expulsions of Poles, who were mostly deported to the Potulice concentration camp, while their houses and farms were handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[2] In 1945, the village was the site of the Soviet-perpetrated Dąbrówka Nowa Massacre.
