Różańsko [ruˈʐaɲskɔ] (formerly German Rosenthal) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Dębno, within Myślibórz County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 15 kilometres (9 mi) north-east of Dębno, 11 km (7 mi) south-west of Myślibórz, and 65 km (40 mi) south of the regional capital Szczecin.

Before 1945 the area was part of Germany. 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.

The village has a population of 638.
