Przebrno is a village on the Vistula Spit in northern Poland. Since 1991 it is part of the town (urban gmina) of Krynica Morska. Previously it was part of Gmina Sztutowo.[1]

The village has sandy beaches on the shores of the Bay of Gdańsk on the northern side of the spit, and the Vistula Lagoon on the southern side.

Before 1793 the area was part of Kingdom of Poland, 1793-1945 Prussia and Germany. For the history of the region, see History of Pomerania. During the Second World War it was the location for the German concentration camp Pröbernau, a subcamp of the German concentration camp Stutthof.
