Domaniów [dɔˈmaɲuf] (German: Thomaskirch) is a village in Oława County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1] It is the seat of the administrative district (gmina) called Gmina Domaniów. 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 13 kilometres (8 mi) west of Oława, and 27 kilometres (17 mi) south of the regional capital Wrocław.
