Rożnów [ˈrɔʐnuf] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wołczyn, within Kluczbork County, Opole Voivodeship, in southwestern Poland.[1]

There is a pyramid-shaped tomb here, built in 1780 during the German-Prussian era when the village was called Ober-Rosen. It was designed by Carl Gotthard Langhans (who also designed the Brandenburg Gate) and housed the tombs of Prussian general Karl Adolf August von Eben und Brunnen and his closest relatives.
