Parcz [part͡ʂ] (German Partsch, sometimes Gross-Partsch) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Kętrzyn, within Kętrzyn County, Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship, in northern Poland.[1] It lies approximately 10 kilometres (6 mi) east of Kętrzyn and 75 km (47 mi) north-east of the regional capital Olsztyn.

Before 1945 the area was part of Germany (East Prussia). One of Adolf Hitler's food tasters, Margot Wölk, lived here for a time, after her house in Berlin was bombed in 1942.[2]
