Bojanow , in Polish Bojanów , is a village in the urban and rural municipality of Kranowitz in the powiat Raciborski in the Silesian Voivodeship , Poland .
geography
Bojanow is located 2.5 kilometers northeast of Kranowitz and 7 kilometers southwest of Racibórz (Ratibor) opposite the confluence of the Bilawoda in the Zinna in the Upper Silesia region , near the border with the Czech Republic, which runs around 4 km south.
history
The first written mention of the place name comes from a document from 1313 in which a knight Gerhard von Boianow appears as a witness. In 1532 the place was recorded as Bojanoff .
In 1359 Abbess Eufemia von Ratibor bequeathed the village to the Ratibor Dominican Sisters, who founded a convent in Bojanow in 1370, and gave the peasants a charter , which 50 years later became subject to interest. In the following years Bojanow passed into the possession of various noblemen until the villagers ransomed themselves in 1796 together with Woinowitz and Lekartow for 191,000 thalers . On October 5, 1797, this was confirmed by the minister in charge in Silesia, Karl Georg von Hoym , and the entry in the mortgage was made on October 12 .
In 1742 the village fell to Prussia and in 1816 it was incorporated into the Ratibor district.
In the referendum in Upper Silesia on March 20, 1921, 357 people (82.3%) voted in Bojanow to remain with Germany and 77 to join Poland. Bojanow remained with the German Empire.
From 1928 to 1929 the Christ the King Church was built at the instigation of the pastor and dean Franz Janta.
From 1933 onwards, the new National Socialist rulers carried out large-scale renaming of place names of Slavic origin. In 1936 Bojanow was renamed to Kriegsbach .
After the Second World War , the village came under Polish administration as Bojanów in 1945 .
Today Bojanow belongs to the municipality of Kranowitz, which is the municipality with the proportionally largest German minority in the Silesian Voivodeship. In 2008, additional official place names were introduced in German.
