Goślinowo

Goślinowo [ɡɔɕliˈnɔvɔ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Gniezno, within Gniezno County, Greater Poland Voivodeship, in west-central Poland.

[1] It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) north of Gniezno and 53 km (33 mi) north-east of the regional capital Poznań.

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1939, the occupiers carried out expulsions of Poles, who were then placed in a transit camp in nearby Gniezno, and afterwards deported to the General Government in the more eastern part of German-occupied Poland, while their houses and farms were handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.

[2] The Polish S5 highway runs nearby, west of the village.
