Targoszyn [tarˈɡɔʂɨn] (German: Bersdorf) is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Mściwojów, within Jawor County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland. It lies approximately 3 km (2 mi) south-east of Mściwojów, 9 km (6 mi) east of Jawor, and 53 km (33 mi) west of the regional capital Wrocław.

Prior to 1945, the village was in Germany and known as Bersdorf. After World War II the region was placed under Polish administration by the Potsdam Agreement under territorial changes demanded by the Soviet Union. Most Germans fled or were expelled and replaced with Poles expelled from the Polish areas annexed by the Soviet Union.
