It can be reached by a road that branches off the voivodship road 390 north of Lądek-Zdrój and ends at the top of the Przełęcz Różaniec ( Rosary Pass ). The continuation of the former road across the border leads from Růženec to Bílá Voda . Neighboring towns are Wrzosówka , Lutynia and Wojtówka in the southeast and Droszków in the west. To the north of Orłowiec runs the district border with Powiat Ząbkowicki , three kilometers east the border with the Czech Republic. To the southeast rises the 900 m high Heidelkoppe ( Borowkowa ), to the west the 680 m high Kahleberg ( Lysy Garb ).

history

Orłowiec was first mentioned in 1352 as Schonaw . It belonged to the Karpenstein dominion in the Glatzer Land and was dedicated to the Reyersdorf parish church . At the beginning of the 17th century the Schönau estate belonged to Friedrich von Reder auf Reyersdorf, who was expropriated by the emperor in 1625 because of his participation in the Bohemian class uprising . As a result, Schönau and Reyersdorf came to the baron von Neuhaus, who had made a contribution as a colonel on the side of the imperial team during the siege of Glatz . He was initially awarded the rule of Neurode , but fell back to him after Bernhard von Stillfried's conversion. In 1628, on the instructions of the Emperor, the Reyersdorf and Schönau estates had to provide 4,000 thalers for the establishment of the Glatzer deanery . In 1748 Maximilian von Haugwitz from Pischkowitz exchanged Gut Schönau for the rule of Gellenau with Johann Georg von Ullersdorf. This belonged to the Order of Malta and was canon at the cathedral in Königgrätz . He transferred the capital of 17,000 guilders that his mother had funded for the Königgrätzer Domkirche to Gut Schönau.

After the Silesian Wars , Schönau and the County of Glatz fell to Prussia in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg . After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and was initially incorporated into the district of Glatz . In 1818 it was reorganized into the newly formed district of Habelschwerdt , to which it belonged until 1945. Since 1874, the rural community of Schoenau was the District incorporated Reyersdorf. In 1939 there were 359 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Schönau fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Orłowiec . The German population was expelled . Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . Since many of them left Orłowiec in the next few decades, the vast majority of the houses and farms were left to decay. In the 1990s, the number of residents was around a quarter of the population of 1939. 1975-1998 Orłowiec belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German: Waldenburg).
