Marusze ( German Dyhrngrund) is a district of the city of Wodzisław Śląski (Loslau) in the Silesian Voivodeship , Poland .
geography
Marusze is 1.5 kilometers south of Wodzisław Śląski , around 12 kilometers southwest of Rybnik and around 18 kilometers northeast of Ostrava , on the left bank of the Wodzisławka.
history
The owner of the Loslau minority rule, Countess Sophie Caroline von Dyhrn , had the Dyhrngrund colony built south of Loslau in 1776 . For the Protestant settlers, especially Austrian craftsmen, she had a wooden church built, which became the mother church for the surrounding colonies of Krausendorf and Friedrichsthal as well as the Evangelicals in Loslau. The renovation measures that were already necessary at the beginning of 1805 were postponed and instead the church was closed on March 17, 1818 due to dilapidation and demolished shortly afterwards. The medieval church of the Holy Cross at the gates of Loslau was then made available to the Protestants and the Protestant school and pastorate were also relocated to Loslau. So in Dyhrngrund only the cemetery of the community remained. After the roof of the new church collapsed, the landlord Hyazinth Graf Strachwitz, as the patron saint of the evangelical community , acquired the brick-built Loslau Minorite Church for 500 thalers as a permanent replacement for the Dyhrngrund Church.
The number of Protestant residents fell from 70 out of 188 in 1830 in the following years to 61 out of 202 (1845) and 52 out of 198 in 1861.
Felix Triest stated in 1861 for the colony sites in Dyhrngrund that they had rather insignificant land holdings of up to 12 acres, a total of 157 acres of fields and were therefore dependent on additional income in Loslau. He also mentioned two mills and an important brick factory. Despite their origins, the inhabitants were exclusively Polish-speaking. According to Henke, however, 18 out of 40 families were German-speaking in 1861.
Originally connected to the Pleß district , Dyhrngrund was assigned to the Rybnik district in 1818. The community of Dyhrngrund ran a towerless church in the seal and belonged to the administrative district of Loslau Castle.
In the referendum in Upper Silesia on March 20, 1921, 86 votes were cast in Dyhrngrund in favor of Germany remaining and 92 in favor of joining Poland. With most of the constituency Rybnik, Marusze was granted Poland on July 3, 1922 and part of the Autonomous Voivodeship of Silesia .
In 1972 Marusze was incorporated into Wodzisław Śląski and has been part of the Old Town district ever since.

Evangelical cemetery
Today only the Protestant cemetery reminds of the origins of the place. It is still used by the Evangelical Augsburg community of Wodzisław Śląski ( Diocese of Katowice ) and houses the city's oldest tombstones, some of which date from the early days of the colony in the 18th century.
