Dobra [ˈdɔbra] (German: Daber), also known as Dobra Nowogardzka, is a town in Łobez County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in northwestern Poland, with 2,215 inhabitants as of December 2021.[1]
In the Middle AgesaSlavic gród existed in present-day Dobra.[2] In the 10th century the area became part of the emerging Polish state under Mieszko I of Poland. It was granted town rights before 1331. In the 13th and 14th centuries a castle was built, rebuilt later in the 16th century,[2] and heavily damaged in the 17th to 19th centuries. In 1647, due to the plague epidemic, the population of Dobra fell from over 600 to 48 people.[2] From the 18th century, it was part of Prussia, and from 1871 to 1945 it was also part of Germany. In 1895, a narrow-gauge railway was built, connecting the town with Stargard.[2] Following the defeat of Nazi GermanyinWorld War II it became again part of Poland.
