history

The place was created in the 15th century at the latest and was mentioned in a document from the Czarnowanz monastery on September 20, 1422 as "Jezowa". In this, Duke Bernhard von Falkenberg gives the Jezowa estate to his councilor Hans von Dobrodzen (Guttentag). On May 3, 1434, Duke Bernhard von Falkenberg confirmed the sale of Jezowa to Jan Stral. On July 8, 1480, Katherine Stralin renounced Jezowa in favor of her brothers.

In 1742 the place with most of Silesia came to Prussia. The place was mentioned in 1783 in the book Additions to the Description of Silesia together with the place Gorosdzie as Jezowa and belonged to a Herr von Stürmer and was in the Lublinitz district (Lublinetz) of the Principality of Opole . At that time he had a farm, a school, 13 farmers, 29 gardeners and 183 residents. In 1790 a school was opened, in 1823 it was massively built. In 1865 Jezowa had a farmer, three half-farmers, 37 gardeners and 42 cottages, as well as two water mills called Goradzie and Mlynek. The residents were parish in Schierokau. The school had 190 students at the time.

In the referendum in Upper Silesia on March 20, 1921, 219 eligible voters voted for Upper Silesia to remain with Germany and 158 for membership of Poland. Jezowa remained with the German Empire after the division of Upper Silesia . In 1936 the place was renamed Kreuzenfeld in the wake of a wave of renaming during the Nazi era . Until 1945 the place was in the district of Loben (in the meantime from 1927 to 1941 in the district of Guttentag ).

In 1945 the formerly German town came under Polish administration and was then attached to the Silesian Voivodeship and renamed the Polish Jeżowa . In 1950 the place came to the Katowice Voivodeship . In 1975 the place came to the newly founded Voivodeship Czestochowa . In 1999 the place came to the re-established Powiat Lubliniecki and to the new Silesian Voivodeship.

Buildings and sights

  • The Roman Catholic Hedwig Church was built from 1958 to 1960. Although it was built in the 20th century, it looks very traditional with a reference to the Baroque style. The church tower was initially unfinished and was completed in November 2008 after seven months of construction.
