Ownice [ɔvˈnit͡sɛ] (German: Ögnitz) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Słońsk, within Sulęcin County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 7 kilometres (4 mi) south-east of Słońsk, 19 km (12 mi) north-west of Sulęcin, and 34 km (21 mi) south-west of Gorzów Wielkopolski.

Before 1945 the area was part of Germany. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration by the Potsdam Agreement under territorial changes demanded by the Soviet Union. Most Germans fled or were expelled and replaced with Poles expelled from the Polish areas annexed by the Soviet Union.
