history

The place was first mentioned in 1272 as Francisci . In 1518 it was mentioned with the double name Franciszowice / Pławy .

Politically, the village originally belonged to the Duchy of Opole-Ratibor ( Kastellanei Auschwitz) during the period of Polish particularism . The duchy was divided in 1281 after the death of Wladislaus I von Opole . Since 1290 the village belonged to the Duchy of Teschen and since 1315 to the Duchy of Auschwitz . Since 1327 the feudal rule of the Kingdom of Bohemia existed , in 1457 bought by the Polish king with Franczyschowicze .

In 1564 Pławy was completely incorporated as part of the new Silesia District of the Krakow Voivodeship to the Kingdom of Poland , from 1569 the Polish-Lithuanian aristocratic republic .

During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Pławy became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804). From 1782 the village belonged to the Myslenice district (1819 with the seat in Wadowice ). After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a parish in the Biała District from 1850 , later in the Oświęcim District .

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Pławy came to Poland. This was interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . The Plawy subcamp existed there from December 20, 1944 to January 18, 1945.
