history

Pilszcz was probably founded in the first half of the 13th century on the corridor of two Slavic settlements and laid out as an anger village on both sides of the Eastern Rabach. According to its corridor, village and farmstead shape, it corresponded to the so-called Leobschützer Angerdorf and formed the southern branch of the German- speaking island around Katscher . Politically it belonged to the Opava region in Moravia and before 1255 was owned by the Moravian nobleman and Znojmo burgrave Boček of Jaroslavice and Zbraslav , who possibly inherited it together with Milostovice and Plesná from his father, the Olomouc burgrave Gerhard von Zbraslav ( Gerhard ze Zbraslavi ) would have. Boček had also been Count von Pernegg since 1252 and founded the Saar Cistercian monastery in the same year . After his death in 1255 he gave him half of Piltsch in his will, which is probably why it was sometimes referred to as "Pulicz" ( half, half ). In 1318 Piltsch was incorporated into the newly founded Duchy of Troppau and after its division in 1377 into the Duchy of Jägerndorf . In the same year it came to the highest treasurer of Olomouc, Wenzel / Václav (I.) von Krawarn auf Straßnitz († 1381), who in addition to Piltsch ( Pulicz ) also Krawarn , Velké Hoštice , Kouty ( Kut ), Rozumice ( Rosenicz ), Vrbka and Kylešovice ( Jilešovice ?) And other territories owned. Presumably because of the Hussite Wars , Piltsch came back to the Duchy of Jägerndorf around 1420 under Peter (II.) Von Krawarn on Straßnitz († 1434), who was governor of Moravia from 1417–1419 and then again from 1422–1425 , with whom it was until 1742 stayed connected. In that year, as a result of the First Silesian War , it fell to Prussia along with almost all of Silesia . Since the border with Austrian Silesia ran south of Piltsch, the connections there were torn down, making it economically on a border. Ecclesiastically, Piltsch still belonged to the Diocese of Olomouc , whereby the part of the diocese that fell to Prussia was administered by the Katscher commissioner founded in 1742 .

After the reorganization of Prussia, from 1815 Piltsch belonged to the province of Silesia and from 1818 was incorporated into the Leobschütz district, with which it remained connected until 1945. From 1874 the rural community of Piltsch formed the district of the same name , which also included Rösnitz and Steuberwitz. From 1932 this district consisted of the rural communities of Piltsch and Auchwitz. The Dominium Piltsch was still in the possession of the Liechtensteiners in the 19th century , who until 1945 held the church patronage over Piltsch.

As a result of the Second World War , Piltsch fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Pilszcz . It was then the seat of the rural community of the same name until 1954 . Together with the Katscher / Kietrz commissariat, which until then belonged to the Archdiocese of Olomouc, Pope Paul VI organized. Pilszcz in 1972 in the diocese of Opole .

The parish church of the Assumption from the 16th century was rebuilt in 1777 in the Baroque style. The side altars come from the Clarissin monastery in Opava, which was closed in 1781 as part of the Josephine reforms .
