history

In 1318 Duke Bernhard von Schweidnitz presented Abbot Heinrich of the Grüssau Monastery with the Schölzerei in Gerhardi villa, which Joachim von Peschen had bought . In 1324 the church patronage was mentioned in Geirhartsdorph prope Swiedenicz , which also proves the existence of a church. In 1532/39 Abbot Franz von Grüssau left the village with Schölzerei, upper and lower courts to the city of Schweidnitz. The place thus became a combing village. In 1538, the lien holder was Sigmund Seidliz von Schmellwiz.

The church of Hohgiersdorf was evangelized with the arrival of the Reformation and re-Catholicized in 1630/54. It was a branch church of the Catholic Church in Ober Weistritz. Hohgiersdorf was evangelically parish to the Protestant church in Dittmannsdorf in the Waldenburg district . After the first Silesian War , Hohgiersdorf fell to Prussia and was incorporated into the Schweidnitz district. Hohgiersdorf formed its own administrative district.

In 1785 the village had 1 Catholic church, 1 parsonage, 2 schoolhouses, 26 farmers, 1 gardener, 26 cottagers, 1 water mill and 362 residents. In 1845 there were 78 houses, 1 Freischolitsei, 697 inhabitants, 139 of them Catholic and the rest Protestant, 1 Catholic church, 1 Protestant and 1 Catholic school, 96 cotton chairs and 4 linen looms, 2 butchers, 12 masons, 3 journeymen and 13 craftsmen. A little outside was the so-called golden forest mill , a water and sawmill.

When it was taken over by Soviet troops and the Polish administration in 1945, Hohgiersdorf was renamed Modliszów . The German residents were expelled and replaced by Poles .
