history

The area around Naumburg was settled in the border forests with German farming villages after 1220 . "Nuenburg" was laid out in 1233 by order of Duke Heinrich I of Silesia at the ford through the Queis as a city by Vogt Themo. As a market and court location for eleven villages under German law, it received Löwenberg town charter and as a border town to the Queiskreis a customs office. The main street, which was bordered by the Niedertor to the west and the Obertor to the east, was designed in an oval shape. A rectangular marketplace was created in the center. The until then ducal patronage of the parish church of St. Peter and Paul was transferred in 1247 to the monastery of the Magdalene nuns founded that year . Economically disadvantageous was that the softening of Bunzlau extended to the city limits of Naumburg. The development was also inhibited by the changing noble and spiritual landlords. Presumably from 1233 to 1408 it was the von Landskron, then the Rechenberg auf Klitschdorf until 1491 , the von Warnsdorf auf Gießmannsdorf from 1491 to 1495 and then the Magdalenerinnenkloster until the secularization in 1810.
In addition to the cloth making, mainly ceramics were produced in Naumburg . The first pottery in Naumburg was established in 1547. This branch of industry developed over the course of the following centuries to become the most important in the city. Until the end of the 19th century, Naumburg was the largest and most important pottery town in Silesia. In 1882 pottery in Naumburg experienced a high point with a total of 25 potteries in the city. The town was the Silesian pottery town and in the importance and size of the guild was far ahead of Bunzlau, which is better known for its pottery .
After numerous city fires in the 17th and 18th centuries, the city's most important buildings were rebuilt. The Catholic parish church was built in the baroque style between 1789 and 1793. At the same time, Naumburg had around 1150 inhabitants. Until 1815 Naumburg was a border town to Upper Lusatia .
Around 1900 Naumburg had a new Protestant church and two Catholic churches. In 1904 Naumburg was connected to the Prussian rail network.
In July 1936 the Confession Synod of the Confessing Church of the Church Province of Silesia met in Naumburg (so-called Naumburg Synod ).
After the end of the Second World War , Naumburg was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying forces in the summer of 1945 . The Poles used the place name Nowogrodziec for the city . Insofar as the German residents had not fled, they were subsequently expelled by the local Polish administrative authorities .
From 1975 to 1998 the place belonged to the Jelenia Góra Voivodeship .
