Nowoszów [nɔˈvɔʂuf] is an abandoned market town in the administrative district of Gmina Iłowa, within Żagań County, Lubusz Voivodeship, in western Poland.[1]
Founded in the 13th century, the small Town was destroyed in 1366 by the Lusatian League when the Archbishop of Breslau decided to establish a Staple for Woad. The League was fined a high repentance, but the City of Görlitz was able to maintain its monopoly on Woadtrade.
