Miszkowice [miʂkɔˈvit͡sɛ] (German: Michelsdorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Lubawka, within Kamienna Góra County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland. It is situated on the Złotna River, a tributary of Bóbr.

History

The village was first mentioned in 1289, when it was part of fragmented Piast-ruled Poland.

After World War II, German population of the village fled and was expelled to Germany. In 1945–1947, Poles expelled from Dolina and Majdan in pre-war south-eastern Poland annexed by the Soviet Union, and from Nowy Sącz settled in Miszkowice.
