Gronowo Górne

Gronowo Górne [ɡrɔˈnɔvɔ ˈɡurnɛ] (German: Grunau) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Elbląg, within Elbląg County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.^[1] It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) north-east of Elbląg and 79 km (49 mi) north-west of the regional capital Olsztyn.

The area was part of the Kingdom of Poland until 1772; from 1772-1945 the Kingdom of Prussia and then Germany (East Prussia). After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration by the Potsdam Agreement under territorial changes demanded by the Soviet Union. Most Germans fled or were expelled and replaced with Poles expelled from the Polish areas annexed by the Soviet Union or Ukranians forced to settle in the area through Operation Vistula in 1947.

The village has a population of 1,270.
