history
Donnerau was probably founded at the end of the 13th century and belonged to the Hornschloss castle district . Together with the Duchy of Schweidnitz , after the death of Duke Bolko II in 1368 , it came under inheritance law to Bohemia, whereby his widow Agnes von Habsburg was entitled to usufruct until her death in 1392 . It was destroyed in the Hussite Wars around 1425 and was still described as desolate in 1497 . In the first half of the 16th century it was presumably repopulated with immigrant miners. Around 1558 a Protestant scrap wood church was built, which was dedicated to the parish church in Wüstegiersdorf. For the year 1576 14 farmers are recorded. During the Thirty Years War , four imperial infantry regiments and 5,000 horsemen with 430 wagons were camped around Donnerau. In 1636 only 18 houses were still inhabited and only eight of the former 124 cows and only two of the 26 horses remained. In 1654 the village church was handed over to the Catholics. The Reimsbach settlement, which had previously belonged to Donnerau, became an independent municipality in 1707. In 1742 Donnerau received its own school.
After the First Silesian War in 1742, Donnerau and Silesia fell to Prussia in 1742 . After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and from 1816 was incorporated into the Waldenburg district, with which it remained connected until 1945. Since 1874, the rural community of Donnerau was the seat of the district of the same name, to which the rural communities of Freudenburg, Lomnitz and Reimsbach also belonged.
The population lived mainly from agriculture, house weaving and fruit growing. For the year 1840 there are 668 inhabitants and 46 handlooms, as well as the coal mines "Christian Gottfried" and "Unexpected luck". As the yield was low, they were soon abandoned. The “Anna-Hütte” iron foundry, founded in 1855, was in operation until 1914. Another economic development followed after the connection to the Dittersbach - Glatz railway . A wooden bobbin factory and a yarn bleaching facility were built. In 1939 there were 947 inhabitants.
As a result of the Second World War , Donnerau fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Grzmiąca . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . In the years 1975 to 1998 Grzmiąca belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg ).
