Grabiny-Zameczek [ɡraˈbinɨ zaˈmɛt͡ʂɛk] (German: Herrengrebin) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Suchy Dąb, within Gdańsk County, Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) north of Suchy Dąb, 9 km (6 mi) south-east of Pruszcz Gdański, and 17 km (11 mi) south-east of the regional capital Gdańsk.

Prior to 1945 it was in Germany and the Free City of Danzig. 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 details of the history of the region, see History of Pomerania.
