Dłużyna Górna [dwuˈʐɨna ˈɡurna] (German: Ober Langenau) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Pieńsk, within Zgorzelec County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland, close to the German border.[1] It lies approximately 8 kilometres (5 mi) east of Pieńsk, 14 kilometres (9 mi) north-east of Zgorzelec, and 133 kilometres (83 mi) west of the regional capital Wrocław.

Prior to 1945 it was in Germany. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration and ethnically cleansed according to the post-war Potsdam Agreement. The native German populace was expelled and replaced with Poles.
