Przyjezierze [pʂɘjɛˈʑɛʐɛ] (German: Butterfelde) is a village in Gmina Moryń, within Gryfino County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-western Poland.[1] It lies approximately 2 km (1 mi) north of Moryń, 43 km (27 mi) south of Gryfino, and 62 km (39 mi) south of the regional capital Szczecin. It lies on the northern shore of Morzycko Lake.

Przyjezierze, then known by its German name Butterfelde, was its own municipality before 1945 with an area of 5,837 km2 (2,254 sq mi) as of 1931.[citation needed] The municipality also contained another, far smaller, settlement by the former train station named Butterfelde Bahnhof, that was located about 400 m (1,312 ft) west of the main village and had a population of 13 in 1895; this settlement is now unnamed and is no longer separately designated.[citation needed]

After the flight and expulsion of Germans from the area as a consequence of World War II, the settlement was given its modern Polish name "Przyjezierze". Between 1975 and 1998, Przyjezierze was part of the Szczecin Voivodeship.
