Henryk I Jaworski; (Henry I of Jawor), was a Duke of Jawor-Lwówek-Świdnica-Ziębice between 1301–1312 (with his brothers as co-rulers), sole Duke of Jawor-Lwówek since 1312 and Duke of Głogów since 1337 until his death.
He was the third son of Bolko I the Strict, Duke of Jawor-Lwówek-Świdnica-Ziębice, by his wife Beatrix, daughter of Otto V the Long, Margrave of Brandenburg-Salzwedel.
In 1319 Henryk I formally married with Agnes (b. 15 June 1305 – d. 4 January 1337), the only child of King Wenceslaus II of Bohemia from his second marriage with Elisabeth Richeza of Poland. However, because they are related in the fourth degree of kinship, was necessary to obtain the Papal dispensation for the wedding, who was granted only in 1325. The couple remained childless, although Agnes did have a pregnancy, but she suffered a miscarriage in the first trimester, when she rode with her horse over a hill, who caused that she kept in bed for many months.
Henryk I died by May 15, 1346, and was buried in the Grüssau Abbey. Today, in Lwówek Śląski was conserved a silver tumbstone, called "The Nun and the Knight" (rycerz i zakonnica), who apparently represented Henryk I and his wife Agnes. Previously, the tumbstone was in the Franciscan monastery of Lwówek.
