Wąsosz is a town in Góra County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland. It is the seat of the administrative district ( gmina) called Gmina Wąsosz. It lies approximately south-east of Góra, and north-west of the regional capital Wrocław. The rivers Orla and Barycz meet here.

Before 1945 it was in Germany. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration and ethnically cleansed according to the post-war Potsdam Agreement.
