Neighboring towns are Młoty in the northeast, Spalona in the east, Mostowice in the southeast and Lasówka in the northwest. Across the border are the localities Orlické Záhoří in the southeast and their districts Kunštát in the south and Jadrná in the southwest.

history

Friedrichsgrund was founded around 1750. It belonged to the Habelschwerdt district in the County of Glatz and is said to have been named after the Prussian King Friedrich II . 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 Habelschwerdt district , with which it remained connected until 1945. Since 1874 it has belonged to the district of Langenbrück, to which the rural communities Kaiserswalde, Langenbrück and Stuhlseiffen also belonged. Initially, the population mainly found employment in the nearby Kaiserswalde glassworks . In the 1840s, a machine papermaking plant was built, which remained in operation for about 30 years. At the beginning of the 20th century, L. and O. Holub set up a grinding shop in which imitation gemstones were made from glass. Due to their brilliant cut, the gemstones were deceptively similar to real diamonds. They were sold worldwide as "Gablonzer Ware" through Gablonzer sales. For economic reasons, operations had to be stopped before the Second World War. In 1939 there were 285 residents in Friedrichsgrund.

As a result of the Second World War , Friedrichsgrund fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Piaskowice . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . Due to the remote location, however, they left Piaskowice in the next few decades, leaving all the houses and farmsteads to decay. From 1945 Piaskowice belonged to Powiat Bystrzycki, in 1975, as well as the previously competent Province Wroclaw (German Breslau was) dissolved. In 1975 it came to the newly formed Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg ), which existed until 1998.

Church affiliation

Friedrichsgrund initially belonged to the parish church in Kronstadt ( Kunštát ) in Bohemia . After the county of Glatz fell to Prussia in 1763, the parish boundaries were also adjusted to the political borders in 1780 on the instructions of the Prussian king. Together with the Glatz localities of Langenbrück , Kaiserswalde and Königswalde , Friedrichsgrund was separated from the Kronstadt parish church and a parish church was built in Langenbrück for these villages in 1781–1782. The financing came from contributions from the four dominions and one state collective . The regulation of the parish boundaries also resulted in a change of diocesan membership: While the four villages belonged to the diocese of Königgrätz until 1780 because they belonged to Kronstadt , with the establishment of the parish of Langenbrück they came to the Glatzer deanery and thus to the archbishopric of Prague .
