Jawornica [javɔrˈnit͡sa] (German: Jauernig) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Lewin Kłodzki, within Kłodzko County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 5 kilometres (3 mi) south-east of Lewin Kłodzki, 24 kilometres (15 mi) west of Kłodzko, and 96 kilometres (60 mi) south-west of the regional capital Wrocław.

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