Suchy Dąb [ˈsuxɨ ˈdɔmp] (German: Zugdam) is a village in Gdańsk County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland. It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Suchy Dąb.[1] It lies approximately 11 kilometres (7 mi) south-east of Pruszcz Gdański and 20 km (12 mi) south-east of the regional capital Gdańsk.

Prior to 1945 it was in Germany and the Free City of Danzig. 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. For details of the history of the region, see History of Pomerania.
