Chwastnica [xfastˈnit͡sa] (German: Quosdorf; until 1937: Quosnitz) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Domaniów, within Oława County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) north of Domaniów, 13 kilometres (8 mi) west of Oława, and 23 kilometres (14 mi) south 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.
