Janowiec (German Johnsdorf ) is a village in the rural municipality Małomice in the powiat Żagański in the Lubusz Voivodeship in Poland . It is located around 5 km northwest of the center of the city of Szprotawa .

geography

Janowiec extends east of a small, right-hand Bober tributary, which was formerly known as Girbigsbach or Cunzendorfer Bach. Together with the Cunzendorf (today Chichy ) to the west of the brook , Johnsdorf basically formed a typical Waldhufendorf around 5 km long . For a long time, however, the two villages were separated by the border between the Duchy of Sagan in the west and the Duchy of Glogau in the east, which ran directly to the east of the river . Landesstraße 12 runs south of the former Johnsdorf estate, which was incorporated into Girbigsdorf in 1928 . To the south of the road, the Girbigsbach flows through the Łódź – Forst (Lausitz) and Bobrzany ( Girbigsdorf ) railway lines , before it turns southwest and flows into the Bober. Since the incorporation of the manor, Johnsdorf, like today's Janowiec, only includes the northern part of the former village.

history

In the 14th to the 16th century, the village of Johnsdorf, together with Cunzendorf and Girbigsdorf, belonged to a von Nechern family who built Johnsdorf Castle in the south of the village after 1543 . The border between the two duchies of Sagan and Glogau ran through the middle of the castle, as the then sovereign of Sagan, until 1549 Moritz von Sachsen , demanded that the lords of Johnsdorf also be resident in the Principality of Sagan, where they owned the fiefs of Cunzendorf and Girbigsdorf possessed.

Seifried von Nechern sold the three villages together with Kortnitz to the east to Dietrich von Kittlitz on Mallmitz . Since then, Johnsdorf has remained in the possession of the respective lords of Mallmitz. Since 1680 the rule was in the hands of the von Roedern family . After Wilhelm Alexander von Dohna-Schlodien (1695–1749) married Countess Henriette von Roedern (1694–1760) in Mallmitz in 1722, rule passed to the extensive family of the Burgraves of Dohna, who owned Johnsdorf until the expropriation in 1945.

In 1742 the Silesian town became part of Prussia and in 1816 it became part of the Sprottau district , which also included Cuntzendorf and Girbigsdorf, which were separated from the Sagan district as a result of the district reform in 1820 . After the war ended in 1945, Johnsdorf fell to Poland and was renamed Janowiec . The German population was expelled. Subsequently, Janowiec became part of the municipality (Gmina) Małomice and with this in the district (Powiat) Żagański.
