Location of the Krosno district in the crown land of Galicia and Lodomeria

The Krosno district was a political district in the crown land of Galicia and Lodomeria . Its area covered parts of western Galicia in today's Poland ( Powiat Krosno ), the seat of the district administration was the city of Krosno . After the First World War , Austria had to cede the entire district to Poland; large parts of it can be found in the Powiat Krośnieński today.

It bordered the Strzyżów District in the north, the Brzozów District in the northeast, the Sanok District in the southeast, the Kingdom of Hungary in the south and the Jasło District in the west .

history

A forerunner of the later district (administrative and judicial authority at the same time) was created at the end of 1850, the district administration Krosno was subordinate to the government area of ​​Kraków and comprised the following judicial districts:

  • Krosno judicial district
  • Brzozow judicial district
  • Domaradz judicial district

After the announcement in 1854, the Krosno District Office was established on September 29, 1855 (still responsible for administration and jurisdiction) within the Jasło District.

After the district offices were abolished at the end of October 1865 and their competencies were transferred to the district offices , the division of the country into two administrative areas was also abolished after the Austro-Hungarian Compromise in 1867. In addition, in the course of the separation of the political from the judicial administration, separate administrative and judicial authorities were created. While the judicial division remained largely unaffected, municipalities of several judicial districts were combined into administrative districts.

The new political district of Krosno was formed from the following districts:

In the 1910 census, the Krosno district consisted of 90 municipalities and 72 manor areas and covered an area of ​​719 km². In 1900 the population had still comprised 81,625 people, in 1910 82,115 people lived here. The majority of the population lived in the area with a Polish slang (84%) and Roman Catholic beliefs, while Jews made up around 8% of the population. A typical shtetl was dukla .

During the period of Galician autonomy, industrialization developed slowly and at the same time the handcrafted weaving , which was widespread in the district at that time, suffered increasingly , especially after the opening of the Galician transversal railway line . Almost all light industry then went bankrupt because it could not compete with Viennese and Czech factories. On the other hand, the extraction of crude oil developed , initially in the oldest Polish center of the oil industry in Bóbrka (see Museum of the Oil and Gas Industry Bóbrka ). However, the first major oil fever began in 1888 after the development of the oil fields in Wietrzno and Równe , and later also in Potok (1891), and reached its peak in the early 20th century. At that time, the oil field extended to the Jasło and Gorlice districts . Before the First World War there were 59 industrial companies employing 1,386 workers, although the area was already smaller than the younger oil area around Boryslaw .
