Lipowa is a village and seat of the municipality of the same name in the powiat Żywiecki of the Silesian Voivodeship in Poland .

geography

Lipowa lies in the Saybuscher Basin ( Kotlina Żywiecka ) under the Silesian Beskids (in the west).

history

The place could have been founded as early as the first half of the 14th century, with Radziechowy perhaps by the noble Radwaniten family . The parish of Lipowa (1350), Lippowa , Lipova or Lippow in the Auschwitz deanery of the Krakow diocese was mentioned in a document from 1346-1358.

Politically, the village originally belonged to the Duchy of Auschwitz , the feudal lordship of the Kingdom of Bohemia . The area of ​​Żywiec with the village was detached from the Duchy of Auschwitz in the 1450s under unexplained circumstances. It finally belonged to Poland from 1465.

During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Lipowa became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Lipowa came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the district of Saybusch in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ).

From 1975 to 1998 Lipowa belonged to the Bielsko-Biała Voivodeship .
