Boguszyn [bɔˈɡuʂɨn] (German: Friedrichswartha) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Kłodzko, within Kłodzko County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland. Prior to 1945 it was in Germany. The settlement is part of historic Kłodzko Land. It lies in the eastern Kłodzko Valley at the foot of the Bardzkie Mountains, approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) north-east of Kłodzko, and 78 kilometres (48 mi) south of the regional capital Wrocław. Friedrichswartha was founded in 1777, after the conquest of the County of Kladsko by the Prussian king Frederick the Great in the course of the First Silesian War 1740–42. A former gord on the ancient Amber Road near the border of Bohemia with the Kingdom of Poland was already mentioned in 1086, later named Burgstädtel. From 1815 it was incorporated into the Prussian Silesia Province. After World War II, the German population was expelled and the village renamed. Until 1998 it was part of Wałbrzych Voivodeship.
