history

Fürstenau was before 1254 by the Breslau Duke Heinrich III. laid out as a city and initially referred to as "cititas Strose". In 1291 it fell to Duke Bolko I , who transferred the town charter from Fürstenau to Kanth around 1297/98 . In any case, Fürstenau is still referred to as “civitas Fürstenow” in 1297, and a year later as “civitas antiqua”.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Fürstenau, like almost all of Silesia, fell to Prussia . After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Fürstenau belonged to the Neumarkt district from 1816 . The district of Fürstenau, formed in 1874, was reclassified in 1932 with the rural communities of Fürstenau and Ocklitz (1937–45 Eichwall , from 1945 Okulice ) into the district of Breslau . In 1939 there were 854 inhabitants in Fürstenau.

As a result of the Second World War , Fürstenau fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Milin . The German population was expelled. Some of the newly settled residents were displaced from eastern Poland . 1975-1998 Milin belonged to the Wroclaw Voivodeship .

Attractions

Fürstenau Castle
  • The Catholic branch church of St. Michael ( Kościół Św. Michała Archanioła ) was probably built in the first half of the 14th century. After destruction in the Thirty Years' War and fire damage in 1824, it was renewed or rebuilt. In 1677–1679 the sacristy and the Holy Cross Chapel were added. The square tower with onion dome dates from 1824. In 1882–1886 the church received a uniform neo-Gothic interior. It comes from the “Atelier for Christian Art” of the Munich architect Joseph Elsner and from the workshop of the Frankenstein decorator Karl Krachwitz.
  • Fürstenau Castle was built as a three-wing complex in the middle of the 18th century instead of a manor house from the first quarter of the 17th century and has been rebuilt several times. After the Second World War it was used as a school at times.
  • The Nepomuk monument next to the church dates from 1733. On one side it shows the martyrdom of St. Nepomuk and on the other hand the confession of the Bohemian Queen Sophie .
