Zebrzydowa-Wieś [zɛbʐɨˈdɔva ˈvjɛɕ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Nowogrodziec, within Bolesławiec County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1]

It lies approximately 4 km (2 mi) north of Nowogrodziec, 14 km (9 mi) west of Bolesławiec, and 117 km (73 mi) west of the regional capital Wrocław.

Prior to 1945 the village was in Germany and known as Siegersdorf.

Most Germans fled or were expelled and replaced with Poles expelled from the Polish areas annexed by the Soviet Union.
