Bożeń is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wołów, within Wołów County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.

The first mention of the village lies in the bronze age, in the years 900-700 B.C. During the 14th century Bożeń came under Bohemian King John of Luxembourg. Later the place was returned to Poland. Germany used to call place Buschen, but in 1483 documents mention it as Boschenn.
