history

The market town of Lelou (today Staromieście, about the old town) was first mentioned in 1193, the castle in 1246 ( castrum in Lelow ) 1307 seat of a castellany ( Castellania Leloviensis ). The new city under German law, civitas Lelovia , was created between the years 1333 and 1341, from 1365 onwards under Magdeburg law . The possessive name is derived from the personal name Lel (short from Lelistryj etc.) with the suffix -ów.

The city became the seat of a district of the Krakow Voivodeship , which u. a. included the city of Częstochowa , almost always the largest city in the district. Around 1600 Lelów was one of the 14 cities in the voivodeship with the largest Jewish population (see shtetl ).

In the course of the Third Partition of Poland , Prussia came to the newly created province of Neuschlesien in 1795 . In 1807 it came to the Duchy of Warsaw and in 1815 to the newly formed Russian-dominated Congress Poland . In 1827 there were 128 houses with 786 inhabitants. In 1869 the place lost its town charter.

In Lelów there is the grave of Rabbi / Rav Elasar Mendel Bidermann, father of David Zwi Schlomo Bidermann (born in Lelów in 1844), known as " Admor von Lelov", an important Hasidic scholar. His father was the founder of a Hasidic school, which is run by his family as a dynasty and is named after the Yiddish place name Lelov . Elasar Mendel Bidermann's grave and his father's grave is still a place of pilgrimage for followers of this Hasidic school.

After the end of World War I , Lelów came to Poland, Kielce Voivodeship . This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the General Government .

From 1975 to 1998 Lelów was part of the Częstochowa Voivodeship .
