Polska Nowa Wieś [ˈpɔlska ˈnɔva ˈvjɛɕ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Komprachcice, within Opole County, Opole Voivodeship, in southern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) north-west of Komprachcice and 11 km (6.8 mi) west of the regional capital Opole.

There is a German minority living in the village. Since 2009 the village has the additional German name "Polnisch Neudorf", which was used before the year 1914. Notable is that the name "Neudorf in Oberschlesien" was not used, even if the name change was before 1933–45.
