history

Formerly Protestant, now Catholic Church

Piława Dolna is the northernmost village of the former Peilaudörfer , which belonged to different landlords and political communities in the course of their history. It was probably founded before 1230 or earlier and was first mentioned in 1335 as "Pilavia inferior" with a church. At that time it belonged to the Duchy of Schweidnitz-Jauer and was owned by Franz von Peterswaldau . After the death of Duke Bolko II in 1368, it fell together with the Duchy of Schweidnitz-Jauer in 1368 to the Bohemian King Wenceslaus , who was a son of Queen Anna of Schweidnitz . However, Bolkos II's widow, the Duchess Agnes von Habsburg , was entitled to a lifelong usufruct . In 1598 Nieder Peilau is said to have been owned by Niclas von Gregersdorf. The brothers Carl Heinrich and Joachim Ernst von Netz are documented for 1686, followed by Wenzel Sigismund von Seidlitz in 1710 , who was married to Anna Barbara von Sandretzky . In 1718 he built a baroque palace on the site of a previous building. In 1725, Nieder Peilau was owned by Julius Sigismund von Seidlitz, who in 1742 founded the Moravian Brethren colony in Ober Peilau .

Also in 1742 the Bohemian hereditary principality Schweidnitz-Jauer fell to Prussia together with almost all of Silesia after the First Silesian War . In 1748/49, the noble pedagogy of the Brethren was temporarily housed in Nieder Peilau Castle. In 1754 Karl Wilhelm von Tschirschky came to rule Nieder Peilau, which was acquired in 1808 by the merchant Riedel, who added a tower to the castle. During the Reichenbach negotiations for an anti-Napoleonic alliance between Prussia and Austria in 1813, the Prussian State Chancellor Karl August von Hardenberg lived in Nieder Peilau Castle .

After the reorganization of Prussia, Nieder Peilau was incorporated into the Reichenbach district in 1816 . In 1840 it came to Riedel's son-in-law Rupprecht, who earned services for better methods in livestock and agriculture. In 1874 the administrative district Nieder Peilau Schlössel (No. 27) was formed, to which the rural communities Nieder Mittel Peilau and Nieder Peilau Schlössel and the manor districts Höfendorf, Nieder Mittel Peilau and Peilau Schlösselhof belonged. In 1938 the rural communities of Mittel Peilau , Nieder Mittel Peilau and Nieder Peilau Schlössel were merged to form the municipality of Peilau .

As a result of the Second World War, Nieder Peilau fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Piława Dolna . Unless they had fled before, the German population was expelled in 1946. Some of the newly settled residents were forcibly evacuated from eastern Poland . 1975-1998 Piława Dolna belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship ( Waldenburg ).
