Góry [ˈɡurɨ] (German: Konradshöh; until 1936: Guhre) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Cieszków, within Milicz County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) south of Cieszków, 9 kilometres (6 mi) north-east of Milicz, and 57 kilometres (35 mi) north-east 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.
