Nowogród Bobrzański pronounced ['nɔˈvɔɡrut bɔˈbʐaɲskʲi] (German: Naumburg am Bober) is a town on the Bóbr river in Zielona Góra County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland, with 5,165 inhabitants (2019).

[2] The historic town was established in 1202 on the eastern banks of the Bóbr as the seat of a castellan in medieval Piast-ruled Poland.

During World War II, the Germans established and operated eleven forced labour camps, whose prisoners mainly built a chemical plant of the Dynamit Nobel AG company in the present-day district of Krzystkowice, and then worked in it.

[4][5] The town was the seat of the firm Ostdeutsche Tiefbau GmbH ("East German Civil Engineering, Inc."), which was one of the contractors responsible for razing the Warsaw Ghetto.

During the final stages of the war, in February 1945, remaining prisoners were sent on a German-perpetrated death march towards Cheb in German-occupied Czechoslovakia.
