Maślice (Polish pronunciation: [maɕˈlit͡sɛ], German: Masselwitz, [ˈmasəlvɪt͡s]) is a district in Wrocław located in the north-western part of the city. It was established in the territory of the former Fabryczna district.

The Oder River flows to the east of Maślice, with the Pilczycki Forest [pl] extending in that direction. To the west, the neighborhood is separated from Stabłowice by a railroad. Pilczyce is located to the south of Maślice Małe, and Pracze Odrzańskie is located to the north of Maślice Wielkie, behind the landfill.

Initially a village, the settlement was incorporated into Breslau (today's Wrocław) in 1928.[2]
