Nowotaniec, (Yiddish: ד בנוביטַניץ' Novitanitz) is a village in south-eastern Poland, inhabited by about 430 (2002), in the Bukowsko Upland mountains. Situated in the Subcarpathian Voivodship (since 1999). Nowotaniec, with upper-suburb Nagorzany, a small town in the county of Sanok, lies in a wooded, hilly area on the highway from Zarszyn to Bukowsko (5.6 km. away). The start of settlement that became Nowotaniec began as a royal village established in 1366 based on the Privilege of Casimir III of Poland the Great. The village was founded on the principles of the Magdeburg Rights. This part of Poland was controlled by Austria for almost 120 years. At that time the area (including west and east of Subcarpathian Voivodship) was known as Galicia since 1772. The Roman Catholic church in Nowotaniec has a collection of records for Nowotaniec and surrounding Roman Catholic villages in its parish like Nadolany and Nagorzany. The Roman Catholic church in Nowotaniec was established in 1409, the parish in 1424. The village was burned down April, 1946 by the Ukrainian Insurgent Army.
