history
The first written mention of a settlement on the site of today's Działoszyn comes from 1411 . A year later the city charter was granted according to Magdeburg law . In 1502 Alexander the Jagiellon gave the place the right to two annual markets and one weekly market every Wednesday. During the Swedish-Polish war , the place was destroyed in 1655 by General Burchard Muller . A synagogue was built in 1760 . During the Second Partition of Poland , the place was incorporated into Prussia in 1793 . On October 2nd, 1803 , a great fire destroyed almost the entire city. With the formation of the Duchy of Warsaw , the place was assigned to it in 1807 and was part of Congress Poland from 1815 . In 1870 a reform of the city law on Polish soil was carried out by Tsar Alexander II , in which the number of cities was reduced from 452 to 114. Działoszyn was one of the towns that lost their town charter. Two years later on July 29th, 186 houses burned down in a fire. During the First World War , the city found itself several times in the contested front area, with the front line shifting sometimes to the west and sometimes to the east of the city. After the end of the war, the city became part of the Second Republic of Poland . The connection to the rail network took place in 1930. The outbreak of the Second World War brought already on 1. September 1939 bombing by the Air Force of the Armed Forces . The following day there was a battle between German and Polish troops in the area . On September 3, the place was occupied by the German Wehrmacht. Until 1945 Dilltal was assigned to the district of Welun in the Reichsgau Wartheland . With the end of the Second World War , the place was rebuilt from 1945. The construction of a cement works between 1961 and 1964 ensured the town's growth. Therefore, with effect from January 1, 1994 , the place received city rights again.
