Jerzyków [jɛˈʐɨkuf] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Męcinka, within Jawor County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] 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.

It lies approximately 7 km (4 mi) west of Jawor, and 67 km (42 mi) west of the regional capital Wrocław.
