Leśnik [ˈlɛɕnik] (German: Leschnig) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Głogówek, within Prudnik County, Opole Voivodeship, in southern Poland,[1] close to the Czech border.

The name is of Polish origin, and comes from the word las, which means "forest", referring to its location.

[2] The first mention of the village as Lesnie dates back to 1217, when it was part of Piast-ruled Poland.

Until 1900 the village operated a distillery, and a watermill was functional until it was destroyed in a flood in 1903.

In the village there are two chapels; one dedicated to Saint Urban I and another built to commemorate the plague of 1649.
