Drzonów ([ˈdʐɔnuf]) is a village in western Poland, in Gmina Świdnica, within Zielona Góra County, Lubusz Voivodeship.[1]

The village is home to the Lubusz Military Museum, housing numerous historical tanks, self-propelled anti-tank guns and aeroplanes. Among the historical landmarks of the village are the 19th-century church and a palace.

After World War II, the village was repopulated with Poles, mostly people expelled by the Soviet Union from the annexed village of Rychcice near Lwów (modern Lviv, Ukraine).
