Chwalęcin [xfaˈlɛnt͡ɕin] (German: Quanzendorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Niemcza, within Dzierżoniów County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] 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.

It lies approximately 6 km (4 mi) north-east of Niemcza, 24 km (15 mi) east of Dzierżoniów, and 43 km (27 mi) south of the regional capital Wrocław.
