Nowe Miasto Lubawskie (Polish: [ˈnɔvɛ ˈmjastɔ luˈbafskʲɛ]; German: Neumark in Westpreußen) is a town in northern Poland, situated on the River Drwęca.

[1] In 1310 the Teutonic Order invaded and occupied the region of Gdańsk Pomerania and Otto von Luttenberg, commander of Culm (Chełmno), founded the settlement in 1325.

During the Polish–Lithuanian–Teutonic War, in 1410, the town briefly became part of Poland due to result of local fighting, and remained so until the 1411 peace treaty.

[2] In the Second Peace of Thorn (1466) the Teutonic Order renounced any claims to the area, and the reincorporation of the town into the Kingdom of Poland was confirmed.

[4] At the end of the 19th century, the town was capital of Landkreis Löbau in the Prussian administrative district of Regierungsbezirk Marienwerder in West Prussia, where it remained until 1919.

On 3 September 1939, during the German Invasion of Poland which started World War II, the town and area were captured and then occupied by Germany.

[1] Under German occupation, from 26 October 1939 to 1945, Nowe Miasto Lubawskie was annexed directly to Germany and administratively made part of the Landkreis Löbau/Neumark in the newly formed province of Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia.
