Rekownica [rɛkɔvˈnit͡sa] (German: Großwalde)[citation needed] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Jedwabno, within Szczytno County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.

The village was created by a fisherman named Eugen Gross or Grosz, who on 12 March 1710 received 16 łans and 8 morgen of land from a local forest master Rudolf Wilhelm von Lüderitz.

The village was conveniently located close to the shores of three lakes: Głęboczek, Rekowe and Bakola (the latter ceased to exist some time in the 19th century).

The village was created in accordance with the mediaeval Kulm law and was exempted from taxes for some time, to attract more settlers, mostly from northern Masovia.

After the war it was partly rebuilt, nowadays its permanent population does not exceed 76 people, many more go there during the summer months.
