history

"Drnkow" originally belonged to the Bohemian rule Nachod and was first mentioned in 1477. At that time, Duke Heinrich d. Ä. , to which the dominions Nachod and Hummel and the county Glatz belonged since 1472 , the entire parish Lewin, to which Dörnikau belonged, into the dominion Hummel and this in the same year into his county Glatz. In 1561 the Bohemian sovereign acquired parts of the Hummel rule. Even after its dissolution in 1595, the associated villages remained in the possession of the royal chamber . It is located in a narrow valley into which the residents of the area fled during the Hussite Wars and the Thirty Years' War .

After the First Silesian War in 1742 and finally after the Peace of Hubertusburg in 1763, it fell to Prussia together with the County of Glatz . In 1793 it consisted of 94 inhabitants who lived in 17 houses. At the end of the 18th century, a glass grinding shop was set up in which numerous villagers found employment. After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia since 1815 and was incorporated into the district of Glatz from 1816–1945 . It formed its own rural community and belonged to the Hallatsch district . In addition to agriculture, the population mainly subsisted on home weaving. Since the end of the 18th century, a glass grinding shop was operated in which numerous residents found employment. Around the middle of the 19th century a school and a royal forestry office were established. At the end of the 19th century, an inn was built for those seeking relaxation and spa guests from the nearby baths of Kudowa and Reinerz. With the development of tourism, the economic situation improved. In 1939 there were 164 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Dörnikau fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was initially renamed Tarnówka and later Darnków . The German population was largely expelled . Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . The population declined significantly and in the 1990s was about 20% of the population of 1939. This left most of the houses in decline. 1945–1973 Darnków belonged to the rural community Jeleniów , then until 1976 to the rural community Lewin Kłodzki, then until 1998 to the urban and rural community Kudowa-Zdrój ( Bad Kudowa ). 1975-1998 Darnków was part of the Wałbrzych Voivodeship ( Waldenburg ).

Colony Boiler

The Kessel colony ( Kotel in Czech ) was first mentioned in 1575 as belonging to the Hummel rule, which had belonged to the Bohemian sovereign since 1561. Even after its dissolution around 1595, the associated localities initially remained in the possession of the royal chamber . Kessel, which formed its own village community, was sold in 1684 to Johann Isaias von Hartig , the owner of the Rückers estate . At the beginning of the 19th century it consisted of a flour mill and eleven gardening posts .

In 1945 Kessel was renamed Kociołek . Numerous houses subsequently remained uninhabited, leaving them to decay. Today Kociołek is considered depopulated and desolate.
