history

Möhlten was first mentioned in a document in 1351 as "Melhotyn" and was then owned by Eberhard von Maltitz . In 1406 it was referred to as "Melten", in 1499 as "Malitau" and in 1560 as "Melthaw". It belonged to the Glatzer Land , with which it shared the history of its political and ecclesiastical affiliation from the beginning. It was pastured to Pischkowitz and at the beginning of the 15th century belonged to Wolfhart von Horsitz ( Hořice ) and Eberhard Maltitz, who sold it to Hans von Zischwitz ( Tschischwitz ) in Gabersdorf , who in 1419 acquired a fiefdom from Hans von Pannwitz in Schwenz. His son of the same name left the sons Gabriel, Lukas and Ernst. 1477 confirmed Duke Heinrich d. Ä. In his capacity as Count von Glatz these three brothers took over the feudal estates in Gabersdorf, Schwentz, Möhlten and Wilmsdorf. In 1527 Möhlten came to Franz von Zischwitz, who was married to Katharina von Pannwitz. In 1544 his son Hans von Zischwitz inherited his estate, who married Christina von Pannwitz. In 1565 and 1571 he acquired two more farms in Möhlten. After his death in 1599 Möhlten inherited his underage granddaughters Maria and Elisabeth, whose father Tobias von Zischwitz had already died. The guardian of the granddaughters sold Möhlten in 1603 to Georg and Hans von Haugwitz in Birgwitz . When he died on November 6, 1616, Hans von Haugwitz left the widow Helena, nee. von Reichenbach from Rathen as well as the daughters Susanne, married von Stillfried , and Helena. After the widow married Gothard von Zedlitz in Kammerswaldau in 1626, Möhlten sold her in 1629 to the Friedland court master Paul Karnitzan, who was married to Anna Susanna von Saltza on Heidersdorf .

After his death on February 18, 1632, it was acquired by the imperial sergeant major Schaffort ( Schaffhurdt ). He was a grandson of the Dresden papermaker Hieronymus Schaffhirt . Since Christian von Schaffhurdt is said to have poisoned his wife, his possessions were confiscated, so that Möhlten, as a settled fief, fell back to the Bohemian sovereign, Emperor Ferdinand III. fell. This sold it in 1648 to his court chamber councilor and chief regent of the county of Glatz, Johann Putz von Adlerthurn, from whom it in 1650 to Barbara von Annenberg, née. von Trauttmansdorff passed over. After the death of Count Johann Arbogast von Annenberg, she married Count Michael Ferdinand von Althann on Mittelwalde and in 1651 sold Möhlten to the Imperial Hereditary Authority Maria Johanna Waldburg-Zeil , married von Bubna . After the death of her husband, the Glatzer Provincial Governor Johann Heinrich von Bubna in Senftenberg , she married the Baron Johann Georg von Morgante on Schlegel and Volpersdorf . In 1667 she ceded Möhlten to the Althann heirs by contract. The Governor of Glatz, Michael Wenzel von Althann , gave it to his former court master Daniel Paschasius von Osterberg in 1675 , who later also acquired the Ober- and Niederrathen and Albendorf estates . In 1685 he sold Möhlten to Otto Ferdinand von Fitschen and his wife Barbara, b. from Valais . Since Otto Ferdinand had his wife strangled on December 2, 1689, he was sentenced to death in 1696. His underage son Franz Ferdinand inherited Möhlten and in 1726 sold a share of the village to Franz Anton von Haugwitz auf Pischkowitz and the rest of the village to Count Johann Georg von Wallis. He sold it in 1738 to the imperial count Franz Anton von Götzen , who united it with his rule in Eckersdorf. After his son Johann Joseph ( Leonhard ) died in 1771 without heirs, the Götzen'schen possessions were first inherited by his three sisters and in 1780 by his nephew Anton Alexander von Magnis .

After the First Silesian War in 1742 and finally with the Hubertusburg Peace in 1763, Möhlten fell to Prussia together with the County of Glatz and, after its reorganization, belonged to the County of Glatz from 1816 to 1945 . Möhlten had had a railway connection on the Glatz - Neurode line since 1879.

As a result of the Second World War , Möhlten fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was initially renamed Miltowo and later Gorzuchów . The German population was largely expelled in 1946 . The new residents were partly displaced from eastern Poland , which had been incorporated into the Soviet Union. 1975-1998 Gorzuchów belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship ( Waldenburg ).
