Tłumaczów [twuˈmat͡ʂuf] (German: Tuntschendorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Radków, within Kłodzko County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland, near the border with the Czech Republic.[1] It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) north of Radków, 21 kilometres (13 mi) north-west of Kłodzko, and 78 kilometres (48 mi) south-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.
