Cienkowice [t͡ɕɛnkɔˈvit͡sɛ] (German: Zinkwitz) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Ciepłowody, within Ząbkowice Śląskie County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 3 kilometres (2 mi) east of Ciepłowody, 13 kilometres (8 mi) north-east of Ząbkowice Śląskie, and 52 kilometres (32 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.
