Dankowice ( German Denkendorf ; Vilamovian language Denkiadiüf ) is a town with a mayor's office of the municipality Wilamowice in Bielsko County the province of Silesia in Poland .

geography

Dankowice is located in the Auschwitz Basin , about 15 km northeast of Bielsko-Biała and 35 km south of Katowice in the Powiat (district) Bielsko-Biała.

The village has an area of ​​1144.7 hectares .

history

The place was first mentioned as the parish Damcowicz in the Peterspfennigregister of the year 1326 in the dean's office Auschwitz of the diocese of Krakow . Later the village was mentioned as Damchowicz (1327), Dampcowicz (1335), Dankowicze (1475), Damkowicze (1481). The name, originally Dąbkowice , is patronymically derived from the personal name Dąbek with the typical West Slavic suffix - (ow) ice, the pronunciation Dampkowice was subject to the simplification -mpk-> -mk- and phonetic assimilation -mk-> -nk-.

In 1934 Kurt Lück referred to the village as a German , medieval settlement with other places on the German Bielitz-Bialaer language island . The Polish historian Antoni Barciak, a professor at the Jagiellonian University in neighboring Hecznarowice , was more cautious and named the place name Dankowice (after him in medieval sources always with the suffix -owice) as possibly genetically [partly] German in connection with the well-known , local knights: Demkon , Dernek or Dunkon , possibly of German origin, in the early 15th century owner of the neighboring village of Jawiszowice and the first known priest named Rudgerus (1326). After the Middle Ages, the surname Damek was quite common in the area, often replaced by Danek from the 18th century . There were also surnames of German origin, as in many villages in the area, although clearly less than in Wilamowice.

In the 14th century the village had around 210 inhabitants, in 1537 there were 22 farmers, a miller and a tavern.

Politically, the private village originally belonged to the Duchy of Auschwitz , which existed from 1315 during the period of Polish particularism . Since 1327 the Duchy of Auschwitz has been under the feudal rule of the Kingdom of Bohemia . In 1457 it was bought by the Polish king , including the village of Damkowicze .

During the first partition of Poland , Dankowice came to the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire in 1772 (from 1804).

After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a municipality in the district and judicial district of Biała from 1850 .

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Dankowice came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged, contrary to international law, to the district of Bielitz in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ).

From 1975 to 1998 Dankowice belonged to the Bielsko-Biała Voivodeship .
