Węgrzynowice [vɛŋɡʐɨnɔˈvit͡sɛ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Budziszewice, within Tomaszów Mazowiecki County, Łódź Voivodeship, in central Poland. It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) north-east of Budziszewice, 21 km (13 mi) north of Tomaszów Mazowiecki, and 36 km (22 mi) east of the regional capital Łódź.[1]

Węgrzynowice is famous as the birthplace of 17th-century szlachta soldier and writer Jan Chryzostom Pasek, who is said to have written his memoirs there. The place where his manor once stood is now occupied by an 18th-century wooden manor, surrounded by a romantic park.
