Boleniec [bɔˈlɛɲɛt͡s] (German Bollenz) is a former village in the administrative district of Gmina Smołdzino, within Słupsk County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 11 kilometres (7 mi) north-east of Smołdzino, 36 km (22 mi) north-east of Słupsk, and 94 km (58 mi) north-west of the regional capital Gdańsk.

Since the 12th century the area was part of the Holy Roman Empire (Duchy of Pomerania), 1648-1945 Prussia and 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. For the history of the region, see History of Pomerania.
