Kamienica Polska ( German Polish Kamnitz ) is a village and seat of the municipality of the same name in the powiat Częstochowski of the Silesian Voivodeship , Poland .
geography
The place is on the stream Kamieniczanka , near the confluence with the Warta .
history
The place on the northern edge of the Duchy of Siewierz was first mentioned in 1437. In the description of the diocese of Kraków from 1470 to 1480, Jan Długosz named him as Fabrica ferri alias Kamyenycza . Fabrica ferri referred to an iron hammer , the name Kamienica means pile of stones , the feminine adjective Polska (Polish) was only added in the late 19th century.
In 1443 the Duchy of Siewierz was bought by the Kraków bishop Zbigniew Oleśnicki . It was not formally incorporated into the Kingdom of Poland-Lithuania by the Sejm until 1790 .
After the second partition of Poland , the area belonged to South Prussia from 1793 to 1807 and was on the border with New Silesia (in the south). In 1809 it came to the Duchy of Warsaw and in 1815 to the newly formed Russian-dominated Congress Poland . In 1818 the village was settled by Czech and German speaking immigrants mainly from the Eagle Mountains . Similarly, 3 km in the northwest, Moravians settled in Huta Stara A in the next year. In 1827 the place had 590 inhabitants. For a long time, the primary school was taught in Czech and German. Until the 1840s, Kamienica Polska was an important center of the textile industry in Congress Poland. The Protestants belonged to the Evangelical Augsburg branch community in Czarny Las , later to the community in Częstochowa . In the second half of the 19th century the number of inhabitants increased (1866: 1471, 1882: 4370) but the place lost its importance in favor of Łódź , where at the turn of the 19th century many textile workers emigrated (1900 - Kamienica Polska only had 3028 residents).
After the end of the First World War , Kamienica Polska came to Poland. In the census of 1921 and 1931, isolated residents declared themselves Czechs, but according to some sources there were between 4,000 to 5,000 Czechs in the Kamienica Polska area during the interwar period, which would be the second largest Czech society in the former Congress Poland after Zelów .
After the end of the First World War , Kamienica Polska came to Poland. In February 1940 the municipality of Kamienica Polska was annexed to the German Reich and was located in the district of Blachstädt . In 1941 it was planned to change the name to Hochsteinau .
From 1975 to 1998 Kamienica Polska was part of the Częstochowa Voivodeship .
