history

In the work Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from the years 1295-1305, the place is first mentioned as Gelczicz . In 1395 it was mentioned as Geltindorff .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Geltendorf and most of Silesia fell to Prussia .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Geltendorf belonged to the district of Grottkau in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 there was a mill, a closet, a forge and 46 other houses in the village. In the same year 266 people lived in Geltendorf, all of them Catholic. In 1855 288 people lived in Geltendorf. In 1865 there was a scholtisei , a 12 farmer, 16 gardener and 13 cottager positions in the place . The residents of Hennersdorf were trained and parish . In 1874 the district of Hennersdorf was founded, which consisted of the rural communities of Geltendorf and Hennersdorf and the manor districts of Hennersdorf-Leipelt and Hennersdorf-Riedel.

In 1933 there were 187 people in Geltendorf and 202 in 1939. Until the end of the war in 1945, the place belonged to the district of Grottkau .

As a result of the Second World War, Geltendorf fell under Polish administration in 1945, like most of Silesia . It was subsequently renamed Giełczyce and joined the Silesian Voivodeship.
