history

Dursztyn is one of the 14 villages in the Polish Spiš .

The place was first mentioned in 1317 as a thirst . In 1589 Olbracht Łaski sold the Vorwerke Durchstein et mali Durchstein to János (Georg) Horváth.

In 1751 Jakob Buchholtz visited the village with other scholars from Vienna, and then Stanisław Staszic twice in 1805 , and Teodor Tripplin in 1848 . In the 19th century, Slovak became the language of the church and schools, but the local Gorals spoke Goral , a dialect of Polish descent that was always considered Slovak in the Hungarian censuses, unlike the Goral villages of the Arwa.

The first church was built in 1896–1903 and rebuilt in 1983–1989.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the village became part of the newly formed Czechoslovakia. As a result of the Czechoslovak-Polish border conflicts in the Spiš area, the place was assigned to the Second Polish Republic in 1920. Between 1920 and 1925 he belonged to the powiat Spisko-Orawski , from July 1, 1925 to the powiat Nowotarski. In 1921 the community had 42 houses with 219 inhabitants, all of them Poles, 210 Roman Catholic, 9 Israelite.

From 1939 to 1945 the village became part of the Slovak State .

From 1975 to 1998 Dursztyn was part of the Nowy Sącz Voivodeship .

In the years 1994–1998 the Franciscan monastery was built in place of the monastery from 1933. In 1993 the parish was established.
