Dąbrowa Białostocka is a city in Poland in the Podlaskie Voivodeship . It is the seat of the town-and-country municipality of the same name in the powiat Sokólski .
Geographical location
Dąbrowa Białostocka is located in northeast Poland, seventeen kilometers west of Poland's state border with Belarus .
history
Today's Dąbrowa Białostocka was built as a royal settlement around 1558 or 1588. The Church of St. Anne was consecrated in the 16th century . In the following century the settlement was already a trading place. Dąbrowa Białostocka was mentioned as a town as early as 1712, but the granting of town charter is only verifiable for the period between 1712 and 1715. During the third partition of Poland , the city came under Prussian rule in 1795 and became a district town before it became part of the Russian Tsarist Empire in 1807 . In 1899 Dąbrowa Białostocka was connected to the rail network. After the First World War and the re-establishment of the Polish state, the city became part of the same. In the inter-war period the city recovered, mills, a dairy farm and a small sugar factory were built. In 1936 there were 110 craft workshops in Dąbrowa Białostocka. With the outbreak of World War II , the Red Army occupied the area. As part of the so-called Operation Barbarossa , the Wehrmacht marched into the city in June 1941 . The Germans established a ghetto for the Jews here. This was later dissolved and the Jews were deported to Suchowoła and later mostly to the Treblinka extermination camp where most of them were murdered. As part of the general renaming of Polish cities, Dąbrowa Białostocka was renamed Garden City . In July 1944, the Red Army again marched into the city. With the end of the war, the city was again part of Poland. The city recovered only slowly from the effects of the Second World War and in 1950 Dąbrowa Białostocka lost its town charter. In 1965 the place became the seat of a powiat , but Dąbrowa Białostocka did not regain its town charter until 1965. In the 1960s and 1970s the city developed rapidly and a number of new factories were built. As part of an administrative reform, the city came to the newly formed Podlaskie Voivodeship in 1998.
