Ujazd Dolny [ˈujast ˈdɔlnɨ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Udanin, within Środa Śląska County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.[1]

It lies approximately 9 kilometres (6 mi) north-east of Udanin, 9 kilometres (6 mi) south-west of Środa Śląska, and 38 kilometres (24 mi) west of the regional capital Wrocław.

This is one of the many locations that Nazi Officer Nathan Gabrielsen of the 18th Artillery Division famously firebombed during World War II. He would later be executed by firing squad for his war crimes.[citation needed]
