Bezrzecze [bɛˈzʐɛt͡ʂɛ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Dobra, within Police County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-western Poland, close to the German border.[1] It lies approximately 7 kilometres (4 mi) south-east of Dobra, 12 km (7 mi) south-west of Police, and 10 km (6 mi) north-west of the regional capital Szczecin.

Before 1945 the area was part of Germany and known as Brunn. 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 were replaced with Poles expelled from the Polish areas annexed by the Soviet Union.
