history

The area between the rivers Skawa in the west and Skawinka in the east was separated from Lesser Poland in 1274 and attached to the Duchy of Opole . The Duchy of Opole was divided in 1281 after the death of Wladislaus I von Opole . From 1290 the area belonged to the Duchy of Teschen and from 1315 to the Duchy of Auschwitz , from 1327 under feudal rule of the Kingdom of Bohemia .

The village in an exclave of the Duchy of Auschwitz was first mentioned in 1365 as Jurczicze , later Orcicz (1387), Iurczyce (1404). The name is derived from the personal name Jurek ( Jerzy ) with the suffix -ice.

Since 1445 it belonged to the Duchy of Zator , which was sold to Poland in 1494. After that, it did not belong to the Silesia District of the Kraków Voivodeship like the rest of the duchy, but to the Szczyrzyc District with the seat of the parish in Radziszów . Shortly after the founding of the Camaldolese monastery near Kraków , the village was bought by the brothers.

When Poland was first partitioned , Jurczyce became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire in 1772 (from 1804). The Camaldolese estates were first bought to the Jordan family. Later it belonged to the Biberstein-Starowiejski family, from 1867 owned by the Haller family from Polanka Hallera . General Józef Haller was born there in 1873 .

From 1782 the village belonged to the Myslenice district (1819 with the seat in Wadowice ). After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a municipality in the Skawina district after 1850, and in the Myślenice district from 1867 .

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Jurczyce came to Poland (Gmina Radziszów, Powiat Kraków, Kraków Voivodeship ). This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the Krakow district of the General Government .

From 1945 to 1998 Jurczyce was part of the Krakow Voivodeship. A large part of the area of ​​the village belongs to the Jagiellonian University .
