history

The village is located in the Olsa area (also Teschener Silesia , Polish Śląsk Cieszyński ).

The place was first mentioned in a document in 1332. The name is patronymically derived from the first name Kacz (probably mentioned as comite Wlodzimiro dicto Kacza after a knight in 1927 ) with typical patronymic word ending -yce.

Politically, the village originally belonged to the Duchy of Teschen , which existed from 1290 during the period of Polish particularism . Since 1327 consisted suzerainty of the Kingdom of Bohemia and since 1526 it belonged to the Habsburg monarchy .

After the abolition of patrimonial from 1850 it was a municipality in Austrian Silesia , Teschen district (Freistadt district from 1868) and the judicial district Freistadt. In the years 1880–1910 the population increased from 1098 in 1880 to 1170 in 1910, there were predominantly Polish-speaking (between 97.7% and 99.7%), German-speaking (20 or 2.1% in 1890) and Czech speakers (7 or 0.7% in 1900). In 1910, 99.6% were Roman Catholics, 5 (0.4%) Protestant.

In 1920, after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and the end of the Polish-Czechoslovak border war , Kaczyce came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II .

From 1975 to 1998 Kaczyce was part of the Katowice Voivodeship .

The “Morcinek” coal mine (Kopalnia Węgla Kamiennego) was operated in the 80s to 90s. During this time, the Roman Catholic Church of Ruptawa was transferred (1971-1972) and a parish (1976) was established.
