history

The place name is derived from the appellative byczyna (place where bulls [ byk in Polish ] were bred).

In the 12th century, the area could have belonged to the Benedictine abbey of Tyniec , so first mentions appeared in connection with this, the dating of which has been questioned. The place was not named in the document of Gilo of Paris (probably from the years 1123-1125), but it was mentioned in the papal bull published in 1229 as Bycina , which was based on Gilo's document. 1287 it was considered Byczyna mentioned, namely except Chrzanów than ever the only name named village of castellany of Chrzanów who spent time in the 13th century Silesian Opole Duchy belonged. In that year Byczyna was attached to the Sławków estate of the Kraków bishops .

After 1287 the castellany of Chrzanów was never mentioned again and the area later belonged to the district Proszowice or Kraków of the Kraków Voivodeship in the Kingdom of Poland (from 1569 aristocratic republic Poland-Lithuania ).

When Poland was partitioned for the third time in 1795, it became part of the Habsburg Empire . In the years 1815–1846 it belonged to the Republic of Krakow , in 1846 it was annexed again to the countries of the Austrian Empire as part of the Grand Duchy of Krakow . After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a municipality in the Jaworzno judicial district in the Chrzanów district .

In 1900 the municipality of Byczyna had an area of ​​1235 hectares, 265 houses with 1711 inhabitants (in the estate area an additional 42), of which all were Polish-speaking, 1691 were Roman Catholic, there were 20 Jews (plus 15 in the estate area).

In the interwar period Byczyna belonged to the Powiat Chrzanowski of the Cracow Voivodeship . According to the 1921 census, Byczyna had 358 houses with 2206 residents, who were predominantly Roman Catholic (2202) Poles (2205). During the attack on Poland in 1939, the area was occupied by the Germans and assigned to the district of Krenau in the new " East Upper Silesia ". In 1975 it was incorporated into the new Katowice Voivodeship , two years later it was incorporated into Jaworzno, at the same time as the city of Jeleń .

The village is situated in the area of Zagłębie Krakowskie (Cracow mining area), but only in recent years, a shaft of the coal mine was Zakład Górniczy Sobieski of the group Tauron built in Byczyna.
