Świętoszów (Polish: [ɕfjɛnˈtɔʂuf]) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Osiecznica, within Bolesławiec County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland[1] in the Lower Silesian Wilderness, on the river Kwisa.

In World War II another POW camp Stalag VIII-E was built here, to house Polish and French prisoners.

In 1942 they were replaced with Soviet prisoners, and the camp was placed under the administration of Stalag VIII-C near Żagań.

At least 50,000 Soviet prisoners died here from disease, starvation and inhumane treatment, the last 200 of them killed as traitors after the war by the NKVD.

The local football club is Twardy Świętoszów, which competes in the lower leagues, reaching the III liga (fourth tier) in 2010.
