Ponikwa (German Verlorenwasser ) is a village in the south of the powiat Kłodzki in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship in Poland. It belongs to the municipality of Bystrzyca Kłodzka ( Habelschwerdt ), from which it is six kilometers to the south.
geography
Ponikwa lies at the foot of the Habelschwerdter Mountains . Neighboring towns are Wyszki in the north, Długopole Dolne in the east, Długopole-Zdrój and Długopole Górne in the southeast and Poręba in the southwest. In the west rises the 965 m high Heidelberg ( Jagodna ).
history
Verlorenwasser belonged to the Glatzer Land and was first mentioned in 1319. At that time there was a fortification in the village, which is why it was probably owned by the Bohemian king. The place name is made up of Wehr (= defend) and Loh (= low wood, bushes) as well as water , with which the village stream is meant. At the beginning of the 15th century it was probably owned as a fiefdom by Hans von Moschen , who sold it to his brother-in-law Hans von dem Sande in 1417. His widow Hedwig, born Moschen, was married to Peter von Güsner for the second time. The fortifications were destroyed in the Hussite Wars and lost water probably fell back to the Bohemian king as a finished fief afterwards.
In 1684, the Bohemian Chamber sold Verlorenwasser and numerous other chamber villages in the Habelschwerdt district to Michael Wenzel von Althann, governor of Glatzer . This formed the rule Schnallenstein from the newly acquired villages , the main town of which was Rosenthal , so that it was also referred to as "Herrschaft Rosenthal". From this point on, lost water consisted of a dominial portion and the free judge property . In 1684, the dominant share consisted of 17 farms, 32 cottagers and a flour mill. This also included the jurisdiction over the free judge property.
After the Silesian Wars , Verlorenwasser and the County of Glatz fell to Prussia in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg . Evidence for the beginning of the 18th century: a burial church, a schoolhouse, 15 farmers, 48 gardeners and cottagers, a piece man and a flour mill. After the reorganization of Prussia, Verlorenwasser belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and was initially incorporated into the district of Glatz. In 1818 it was reclassified to the Habelschwerdt district , to which it belonged until 1945. In 1939 there were 533 inhabitants.
As a result of the Second World War , in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, Verlorenwasser fell to Poland and was renamed Ponikwa . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . Since numerous residents left Ponikwa again in the next few decades, the number of inhabitants decreased significantly. 1975-1998 Ponikwa belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg ).
Freirichtergut
The Freirichtergut was owned by Hans von Moschen in 1412, who presumably also owned the village of Verlorenwasser. In 1417 he sold both to his brother-in-law Georg von dem Sande. After his widow Hedwig nee von Mosch married Peter Güsner, the Freirichtergut remained in this family until 1541, while the village probably fell back to the Bohemian king after the Hussite Wars. For 1541 Erasmus Tschesch ( Czesch ) von Mirselwitz is proven as free judge, around 1550 Andreas Lachnit, with his descendants it probably remained until the end of the 16th century. The judge Barthel Jung sold the judge estate around 1610 to the city of Glatz, which also bought the higher court over the judges estate from the emperor, but lost it again during the bohemian uprising . Because of over-indebtedness she sold the judicial property in 1631 to the heirs of the creditor Johann von Vite. Around 1640 they sold it to Valentin Mader, whose descendants did so at the beginning of the 18th century.
Church affiliation
Verlorenwasser did not initially have its own house of worship. It was therefore dedicated to the church of Niederlangenau, which in turn was a branch of the Oberlangenau parish at that time. After this was downgraded to a branch of Ebersdorf in 1624 , Verlorenwasser fell to the parish of Habelschwerdt together with Niederlangenau. With the approval of the Prague Consistory , a wooden burial chapel with a cemetery was built in 1700 and dedicated to St. Consecrated to Joseph. In its place, a small stone church was built from 1802-1803 and consecrated on October 23, 1803. Later she was appointed curate of the parish church of Habelschwerdt.
