history
According to T. Lalik (2006), the name Miejsce (= miasto, German city) suggests that the village was able to exist as a market place in the early Middle Ages, but later lost its importance in favor of Zator. The name Miejsce is related to the Polish word miasto (city), as well as to the word miejscowość ( miejsce + suffix - (ow) ość , literally locality), but primarily designates a place, space / area, land . The village was first mentioned in 1440 as z Městca (Czech spelling) or Myestchcze , later as Myestzecz (1447), Mestcze villa (1450).
The area between the rivers Skawa in the west and Skawinka in the east was separated from Lesser Poland in 1274 and attached to the Duchy of Opole . The Duchy of Opole was divided in 1281 after the death of Wladislaus I von Opole . From 1290 the village belonged to the Duchy of Teschen . Since 1315 it belonged to the Duchy of Auschwitz , which from 1327 was under feudal rule of the Kingdom of Bohemia . Since 1445 it belonged to the Duchy of Zator , which was sold to Poland in 1494. Subsequently, the Duchy of Auschwitz-Zator was completely attached to the Kingdom of Poland in 1564, as the district of Silesia in the Krakow Voivodeship , and from 1569 in the Polish-Lithuanian aristocratic republic .
According to Jan Długosz , the village of Myeszcze (1470–1480) had a parish church ( villa in qua ecclesia parochialis ). It was owned by the ducal family until 1440, after which it belonged to the Myszkowski family, who attached it to a latifundy based in Spytkowice. In 1529 the branch church of Spytkowice was destroyed by a flood.
During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Miejsce became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804). From 1782 it belonged to the Myslenice district (1819 with the seat in Wadowice ). After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a parish in the judicial district of Wadowice in the Wadowice District after 1850 , from 1891 in the Zator judicial district, which was merged with the Oświęcim judicial district in 1910 to establish the Oświęcim district .
In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Miejsce became part of Poland again. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the district of Bielitz in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ), as one of the few villages east of the Skawa, at that time Schaue , which became the border between the Third Reich and the Generalgouvernement .
From 1975 to 1998 Miejsce was part of the Bielsko-Biała Voivodeship .
