geography
Dobroszyce is located in the south of the municipality, in the north of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship - around 5 km north of the district town of Oleśnica and 25 kilometers northeast of Wroclaw . The commune is connected to Oleśnica and the west of the voivodeship with the 340 ( droga wojewódzka ) road.
The forest of the Juliusburger Forst (especially pines ) occupies a large part of the municipality with 42% and above all the northern part.
history
The former city of Juliusburg goes back to the village of Dreske (also Treskin or Dresky ), which was first mentioned in a document in 1405. The surname Treske is also derived from there. It belonged to the Duchy of Oels , with which it broke away from the Polish state in 1327 and became part of the Crown of Bohemia , of which the Habsburgs became rulers in 1526 . Dreske was originally the headquarters of the von Czirn family, Silvius Nimrod von Württemberg-Oels bought the place in 1655 from the von Hengel family.
The year 1663 represents a turning point in the local history, when Silvius Nimrod von Württemberg-Oels founded a new town near the old village of Dreske ( town charter from July 10, 1663) and had it laid out according to plan with a square ring . After his death in 1664, the city was named Juliusburg on February 27, 1676 by his son Julius Siegmund . The first depiction of the city coat of arms , which corresponds to today's municipal coat of arms , also dates from the same year . In 1675 both places were united under the name Juliusburg, which strengthened the importance of Juliusburg as a center of weaving and tailoring. From 1675 the castle of Juliusburg was transformed into a baroque palace , in 1693 the construction of a town hall followed and from 1693 to 1697 a stately Protestant church in the baroque style was built in Juliusburg with St. Trinitatis , with the choir from the 16th century in the new building was included.
Juliusburg remained in the hands of the von Württemberg-Oels family until 1792, whose residence was Juliusburg until 1704. The Wuerttembergers were followed by the Dukes of Braunschweig as owners, who were finally replaced in 1884 by the Wettins , who then owned Juliusburg until 1945.
In the 19th century, the local cloth production experienced a decline, which was replaced by the wood industry . Visible signs of the economic decline were the demolition of the town hall in 1826 and the loss of town charter in 1928.
From 1940 to 1942 the prisoner-of-war camp of the Wehrmacht Oflag VIII C existed in Juliusburg . In 1945 the place was captured by the Red Army and became part of Poland according to the results of the 1943 Tehran Conference . Juliusburg was renamed Julianów for a short time , but then got its current name Dobroszyce .

Attractions
- Juliusburg Castle is a two-story rectangular building, the corners of which are flanked by bay windows , with the southeast bay window raised to a tower. The present castle goes back to a renaissance fortification with moat, which was built for Andreas von Hengel from 1589 to 1601. Julius Siegmund von Württemberg-Oels had the existing complex converted into a representative baroque palace in 1675–1676 . The building underwent a major redesign in 1853, including the demolition of the baroque gable, and after 1945 when further decorative elements were removed from the building for use as a school. After the many renovations, the current appearance of the castle is very simple, Renaissance window frames and the baroque portal are still reminiscent of the original appearance of the building.
- The parish church of St. Hedwig (kościół pw Św. Jadwigi) is a neo-Gothic brick building. The church used to be part of the Amalienstift , whose main building, which is also neo-Gothic, now houses a training and education center.
