Stare Osieczno [ˈstarɛ ɔˈɕɛt͡ʂnɔ] (German: Hochzeit) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Dobiegniew, within Strzelce-Drezdenko County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 14 kilometres (9 mi) east of Dobiegniew, 32 km (20 mi) north-east of Strzelce Krajeńskie, and 56 km (35 mi) north-east of Gorzów Wielkopolski.

Before 1945 the area was part of Germany (see Territorial changes of Poland after World War II). 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.
