history

In 1140, on the trade route from Russia to Silesia, a settlement called Pageuchno was first mentioned on the site of today's Pajęczno. The town received the town charter in 1265 by Leszek Czarny . During the third partition of Poland , the place became part of Prussia in 1795 . With the formation of the Duchy of Warsaw in 1807, he became part of the same and eight years later of the newly established Congress Poland . In 1810, on September 4th, a fire broke out, through which parts of the city and also important documents fell victim to the flames. The town lost its town charter in 1870 when Tsar Alexander II reduced the number of towns on Polish territory. After the end of the First World War , the place came to the Second Republic of Poland . During the attack on Poland , the city was occupied by the Wehrmacht . After the end of the Second World War in 1945, the city became part of Poland again and in 1956 the seat of its own powiat . Two years later, the city received city rights again. During an administrative reform, the place lost the Powiat seat in 1975 and became part of the newly formed Częstochowa Voivodeship . After another administrative reform, Pajęczno was again the seat of the powiat and part of the Łódź Voivodeship .
