history

Kurzyna on the Franziszeische Landaufnahme around the middle of the 19th century

There are three neighboring villages called Kurzyna : Kurzyna Mała ( Klein Rauchersdorf ), Kurzyna Wielka ( Groß Rauchersdorf ) and Kurzyna Średnia ( Mittel Rauchersdorf ). Kurzyna Mała (actually bigger) and Kurzyna Wielka existed before 1772 and belonged to the parish in Pysznica . The possessive name Kurzyna is derived from the personal name Kura (kura - domestic chicken ) or Kurza (kurzyć - smoking).

During the first partition of Poland in 1772, both villages became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804). In 1783, in the course of the Josephine colonization between Kurzyna Mała and Kurzyna Wielka, a total of 40 German mostly Catholic and Lutheran families (166 people) were settled as colonists on 142 (in Kurzyna Wielka) and 242 hectares (in Kurzyna Mała). The colony was called Rauchersdorf , roughly the translation of the names of the Polish villages (derived from kurzyć - smoking ). This colony was initially divided between the two villages, but later became an independent parish. In 1812 there were a total of 201 Germans there. 1816-1818 a wooden church was built, where preaching was also held in German. By the end of the 19th century, the colonists' descendants were Polonized. In 1900 the community of Rauchersdorf in the district of Nisko had 69 houses with 392 inhabitants, of which all were Polish-speaking, 377 Roman Catholics, 5 Greek Catholics, there were 10 Jews.

In 1913 the Roman Catholic parish was established.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Rauchersdorf came to Poland. In 1921 the village of Rauchersdorf had 67 houses with 353 inhabitants, all of them Poles, 323 Catholic, 1 Greek Catholic, 29 Jews.

On May 24, 1939 the name Rauchersdorf was changed to Kurzyna Średnia .

During the Second World War it belonged to the Generalgouvernement.

From 1975 to 1998 Kurzyna Mała belonged to the Tarnobrzeg Voivodeship .
