history
Michaelsthal was created from 1782 on the ground of a disused Vorwerk that belonged to the village of Hain. Founder and namesake of the colony Michael Thal was the then Majoratsherr the reigns Mittelwalde, Woelfel village and Schoenfeld , Michael Otto Count von Althann . He added Michaelsthal to the Schönfeld dominion and dedicated it to the Lauterbach branch church, which in turn belonged to the parish church in Schönfeld.
At the beginning of the 19th century Michaelsthal consisted of a Erbschölzerei, which was built from the buildings of the dissolved Vorwerk, an oil mill and 31 houses with arable fields. It formed its own village community and in 1802 had a total of 179 inhabitants. After the reorganization of Prussia, Michaelsthal belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and was initially incorporated into the district of Glatz. In 1818 it was reclassified to the Habelschwerdt district , to which it belonged until 1945. From 1874 Michaelsthal belonged together with the rural communities of Hain, Lauterbach, Gläsendorf, Neundorf, Alt Neißbach, Neu Neißbach, Schönfeld and Thanndorf to the Lauterbach district . In 1939 171 inhabitants were counted.
As a result of the Second World War , Michaelsthal fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Michałowice . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . The number of residents decreased significantly. From 1975 to 1998 Michałowice belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship ( Waldenburg ).
