Magnuszowiczki [maɡnuʂɔˈvit͡ʂki] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Niemodlin in Opole County, Opole Voivodeship in southwestern Poland.[1]

Memorial at the site of the former Nazi German forced labour camp

The village's history dates back to medieval Poland. Before 1945 it was part of Germany. During World War II, from 1940 to 1944, a Nazi German forced labour camp for Jews, and initially also Poles, was located there.[2][3] There is a memorial at the site.
