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, German colonists of Catholic and Lutheran denominations were settled. The colony was called Rauchersdorf , roughly the translation of the names of the Polish villages (derived from kurzyć - smoking ). This colony was called the Independent Municipality and later Kurzyna Średnia .

From 1809 Kurzyna Wielka bordered the Duchy of Warsaw in the east and from 1815 on Congress Poland .

In 1900, the Kurzyna Wielka community in the Nisko district had 70 houses with 370 inhabitants, of whom 367 were Polish-speaking, 325 Roman Catholic, 22 Greek Catholic, 23 Jewish.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Kurzyna Wielka came to Poland.

In 1921 the village of Kurzyna Wielka had 57 houses with 306 inhabitants, of whom all were Poles, 295 Catholic, 1 Greek Catholic, 10 Jewish (religion only).

During the Second World War it belonged to the Generalgouvernement .

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