history

Langenau was first mentioned in 1346 when it was divided into the independent communities of Ober- and Niederlangenau. It belonged to the Glatzer Land , with which it shared the history of its political and ecclesiastical affiliation. For 1384 it is recorded as a parish in a directory of the Glatzer deanery. At that time the church of St. Peter and Paul already existed as a wooden structure. In 1595 it was replaced by a stone building. The villages Niederlangenau, Verlorenwasser, Lichtenwalde and Seitendorf initially belonged to the Oberlangenau parish. However, it was downgraded to a branch church of Ebersdorf in the first half of the 17th century .

After the Thirty Years' War the imperial troops in 1622 recaptured the county Glatz, it came in Habelschwerdt and around an uprising of the followers of the Winter King Frederick of the Palatinate , of the upper Langenauer free judges was led Hans Wolf. The imperial garrison then called in Polish troops, who plundered the area. The Oberlangenau pastor Martin Leimgruben was mistreated and killed in his rectory. After the Habsburgs regained power , Hans Wolf was fined 588 thalers. In 1633 133 people died of the plague. In 1647 the church was sacked by imperial soldiers.

After the Silesian Wars , Oberlangenau and the County of Glatz came to Prussia in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg . At the beginning of the 19th century Oberlangenau consisted of two parts:

  • In the oldest times, the dominant portion belonged to Schnallenstein Castle. After the castle was destroyed by the Hussites in 1428 , this portion came together with the Schnallenstein to the royal Bohemian chamber . In 1684, together with other chamber villages in the Habelschwerdt district, it was acquired by the Governor of Glatz, Michael Wenzel von Althann , who already owned the neighboring dominions of Mittelwalde , Wölfelsdorf and Schönfeld . This formed from the newly acquired villages and the Nieder- and Oberlangenau parts of the lordship Schnallenstein , the main town of which was Rosenthal , so that it was also known as the "lordship Rosenthal".
  • The Freirichtergut included two free farmers, a Kretscham , a water mill, a canvas fulling machine, a bleaching facility, some ponds and 25 gardeners - and other jobs. It had, among other things, the lower courts , the hunting rights, the liquor and brewing privilege. The upper judiciary was with the Dominium.

After the reorganization of Prussia, Oberlangenau belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and was initially incorporated into the district of Glatz. In 1818 it was reclassified to the Habelschwerdt district , to which it belonged until 1945. In 1939 there were 1197 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Oberlangenau fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Długopole Górne . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . 1975-1998 Długopole Górne belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship .
