Wyszęcice [vɨʂɛnˈt͡ɕit͡sɛ] (German: Wischütz) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wińsko, within Wołów 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 9 kilometres (6 mi) west of Wińsko, 16 kilometres (10 mi) north-west of Wołów, and 53 kilometres (33 mi) north-west of the regional capital Wrocław.
