history

The settlement of the upper Steinetal , which at that time was administratively counted as part of the Glatzer Land , took place around 1250 by the Benedictine monastery in Politz . Langwaltersdorf was first mentioned in 1350 as Walthiersdorf in a list of the villages belonging to the Bohemian castle district of Freudenburg . Together with the Freudenburg it came to the Duchy of Schweidnitz around 1359 , with whom it fell to Bohemia under inheritance law after the death of Duke Bolko II . However, Bolko's widow Agnes von Habsburg was entitled to usufruct until her death in 1392 . Langwaltersdorf was destroyed in the Hussite Wars and rebuilt at the end of the 15th century. From 1509 Langwaltersdorf was in the possession of the imperial counts of Hochberg ( Hohberg; Hohberg ) on Fürstenstein and was temporarily part of their rule Friedland. In 1619 the “Buschhäuser” colony was built, which was later called Niederwaltersdorf . In the Thirty Years' War Lang Walter village was destroyed. Ecclesiastically it belonged to the Archdiocese of Prague until 1654 .

After the First Silesian War , Langwaltersdorf and most of Silesia fell to Prussia in 1742 . In the same year a Protestant prayer house and a Protestant school were built. In 1781 the so-called Fellhammer -Langwaltersdorf coal road was built. After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and from 1816 was incorporated into the Waldenburg district, with which it remained connected until 1945. In addition to agriculture, linen weaving, which developed from the beginning of the 19th century, was of economic importance. Since 1874 Langwaltersdorf formed its own rural community and was the seat of the district of the same name , to which the rural communities Althain, Neuhain, Reimswaldau and Steinau also belonged. In 1934 the Niederwaltersdorf district was incorporated into Schmidtsdorf . In 1939 the number of inhabitants was 1099.

As a result of the Second World War , Langwaltersdorf fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Unisław Śląski . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . After 1945 the line was stopped and the railway tracks were dismantled. From 1975 to 1998 Unisław Śląski was part of the Wałbrzych Voivodeship .
