history
The first written mention of the village of Jaskrzambie comes from the year 1467. It is assumed that the Friczonis villa , which existed in 1305, was the same place. Jastrzemb was originally part of the Silesian Duchy of Ratibor , since 1437 of the Duchy of Rybnik and since 1464 of the Duchy of Loslau . After the Loslau rule was separated in 1483 , which was raised to minority rule in 1515 , it was part of their territory. In 1742 Jastrzemb became Prussian . The place previously belonging to the Pleß district was transferred to the newly established Rybnik district in 1818 .
Jastrzemb remained an insignificant village until 1859 when investigations into salt and coal deposits were carried out there, healing brine with iodine , bromine and carbonic acid content was discovered. The owner of the Nieder Jastrzemb manor at the time , Emil Freiherr von Schlieben, built a rheumatic bath . Because of the effectiveness of the mineral water , Felix von Königsdorff , who had acquired the property in 1861, had two spa houses and other bathing facilities built between 1861 and 1862 for the treatment of rheumatism, scrofula , gout , rickets and liver diseases . Jastrzemb became a health resort . In 1862 the village Nieder Jastrzemb was renamed Königsdorff-Jastrzemb . In 1890 the Berlin banker Landau became the new owner; In 1891 he built the Marienheim children's sanatorium . In 1895 the Polish doctor Mikołai Witczak bought the Königsdorff-Jastrzemb estate and introduced modern spa procedures. During his time the Herz-Jesu-Kirche, a concert shell and a drinking house were built.
After the referendum in Upper Silesia and the handover of Eastern Upper Silesia in 1922 , the Königsdorff-Jastrzemb estate and the associated villages became Polish. In 1928 a sanatorium opened and Bad Königsdorff-Jastrzemb became one of the most famous European spas. After the invasion of Poland and the subsequent German occupation, Jastrzemb became part of the German Empire in 1939, in violation of international law .
After the Second World War , the place came back to Poland and was assigned to the newly formed powiat Wodzisławski .
In 1951 geological surveys of the area around Jastrzebie and Moszczenica were started, during which extensive coal deposits were discovered. In 1955 the health resort was given the status of an urban settlement. Between 1962 and 1974, five hard coal mines started operations. These were the pit Jastrzębie in 1962, in 1965 the pit Moszczenica , 1969, the Manifest Lipcowy , 1971 Borynia and 1974 Pniówek . Mining changed the town, which was given town charter in 1963 , from a quiet spa town to a residential town for miners, the population of which rose by leaps and bounds. At the same time, the surrounding villages were incorporated - in 1961 the area of the municipality was only 8.36 km².
The spa operation continued until the 1960s, but the number of spa guests continued to decline and the spa facilities deteriorated. As a result of the drilling of additional mines it came to the drying up of its water, so that the end of the resort.
On September 3, 1980, came during the strikes in Poland on the pit Manifest Lipcowy the conclusion of the agreement of Jastrzębie after the previously in Gdansk and Szczecin an important step of the agreements concluded Solidarity movement in the struggle for democracy and independence against the communist Regime was.
Today the Jas-Mos mines ( consolidated from the Jastrzebie and Moszczenica mines ), Borynia and Zofiówka (formerly Lipcowy Manifesto ) are in operation.
