Bagno [ˈbaɡnɔ] (German: Heinzendorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Oborniki Śląskie, within Trzebnica County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 8 kilometres (5 mi) north-west of Oborniki Śląskie, 18 kilometres (11 mi) west of Trzebnica, and 29 kilometres (18 mi) north-west of the regional capital Wrocław.

Prior to 1945 it was in Germany. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration and ethnically cleansed according to the post-war Potsdam Agreement. The native German populace was expelled and replaced with Poles.

The 18th century Bagno Palace today is home to a seminary of the Salvatorian order.
