Radzicz [ˈrad͡ʑit͡ʂ] (formerly Hermannsdorf) is a village in rural Gmina Sadki, within Nakło County, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-central Poland.[1] It lies approximately 5.5 kilometres (3 mi) north-west of Sadki, 15 km (9 mi) north-west of Nakło nad Notecią, and 42 km (26 mi) west of Bydgoszcz.

History

Following World War II and the removal of most ethnic Germans from the village, Hermannsdorf was renamed Radzicz probably based on the local heritage since the surname Radzicz has the connotation of ancient nobility.

From 1975 to 1998, Radzicz administratively belonged to Bydgoszcz Province, superseded by the Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship.
