history

Follmersdorf was first mentioned in 1260 as “villa Volmari” in a document from Bishop Thomas I of Wroclaw , with which he confirmed the property of the Cistercian monastery Kamenz as well as the tithe . At that time it belonged to the Duchy of Breslau and in 1290 came to the Duchy of Schweidnitz . After its division in 1321, it fell to the newly established Duchy of Münsterberg . Meanwhile, Duke Bolko II. Transferred its territory until 1336 as a fief to the crown of Bohemia , which from 1526 the Habsburgs occupied. As early as 1312, the Münsterberg citizen Hermann von Lauterbach had sold his Follmersdorfer Scholtisei to the Kamenz monastery.

For the year 1619 Follmersdorf, which appears in older documents and maps also in the spelling Volmersdorff, has one Erbscholze, one miller, one shepherd, one church clerk and one gardener as well as 19 farmers, 39 cottagers and 28 housemates . In 1633 the plague raged and in the Thirty Years War Follmersdorf was devastated like the surrounding villages in 1638. Under Abbot Gerhard Woywoda, the St. Jakobus Church was built on the site of a previous building in 1722/26, as a branch of the Parish Maifritzdorf.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Follmersdorf, like almost all of Silesia, fell to Prussia . A school as well as a forge and a water mill are documented for 1785. The then 451 inhabitants lived in 21 farmsteads as well as in five gardeners 'and 58 cottagers' properties.

After the abolition of the Kamenz monastery through secularization in 1810, Follmersdorf, like the rest of the monastery property, came to Princess Friederike Louise Wilhelmine in 1812 , a daughter of the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm II and later Queen of the Netherlands.

After the reorganization of Prussia, Follmersdorf belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and from 1818 was incorporated into the Frankenstein district, with which it remained connected until 1945. Of the 776 inhabitants counted in 1845, 771 were Catholic and five were Protestant. At that time they lived in 155 houses. Since 1874 Follmersdorf belonged together with the rural communities Maifritzdorf and Dörndorf (since 1945 Płonica ) to the Maifritzdorf district . In 1939 there were 706 inhabitants in Follmersdorf.

As a result of the Second World War , Follmersdorf fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Chwalisław . The German population was expelled in 1945/46. Some of the newly settled residents were displaced from eastern Poland . From 1975 to 1998 Chwalisław belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship. Ecclesiastically it was incorporated into the Archdiocese of Wroclaw until 2004 , since then it has belonged to the newly founded Diocese of Świdnica .
