Pszczew [pʂˈt͡ʂɛf] is a village in Międzyrzecz County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland.

Pszczew, despite being located in the heavily Germanized western borderlands of Greater Poland, had a majority Polish population.

However, after Poland regained independence in the aftermath of World War I, the Treaty of Versailles left the town within the borders of Germany.

[5] During the war, firing trenches and an observation post were established at the former medieval motte-and-bailey castle.

[3] After the war, Pszczew was returned to Poland and the remaining German inhabitants were expelled[citation needed] in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement.
