history

Bankwitz was first mentioned in 1353 as "Bangk". Other spellings were 1359 "Bank", 1373 "Banka" and 1378 "Bankow". It belonged to the Duchy of Breslau , which had already fallen to the Crown of Bohemia as a settled fief in 1335 , which came to the Habsburgs in 1526 . They were sovereigns of Silesia in their capacity as kings of Bohemia .

In the 15th century, Bankwitz belonged to the barons Tschammer . This was followed in the 16th century by the Barons von Beesz, and in the 17th century it was owned by the Barons Frankenberg .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Bankwitz and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . When the Prussian reforms came into force , Bankwitz belonged to the Prussian district of Namslau from 1813 , which existed until 1945 and was incorporated into the province of Silesia in 1815 . In the first half of the 19th century, Bankwitz belonged to Count Sandreczky , who rebuilt the castle. From 1862 to 1872 the castle estate was owned by Kaspar Heinrich Joseph Franz Klemens von Lützow , whose daughter Marie Freiin von Lützow (1843–1914) married Bodo Ludwig Leopold von Suckow on June 14, 1865 in Bankwitz . In 1874 the district of Bankwitz was created, which also included the rural communities of Groditz and Gühlchen and the manor districts of Bankwitz and Gülchen. In 1888 the Namslauer Kreisblatt named Eduard Lindner as the landowner in Bankwitz. From 1919 to 1938 and from 1941 to 1945 Silesia was divided into two provinces, the administrative district of Breslau , which Bankwitz was incorporated, belonged to the province of Lower Silesia . In 1933, Bankwitz had 747 inhabitants, in 1939 there were 745 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Bankwitz and most of Silesia fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Bąkowice . The German population was expelled . After 1945 Bąkowice belonged to the Wroclaw Voivodeship . From 1945 to 1954 it was the seat of the rural community of the same name , in 1950 it was incorporated into the newly created Opole Voivodeship together with the Powiat Namysłowski ( Namslau district ) .
