history

Village church

Lichtenwalde belonged to the Glatzer Land and was first mentioned in 1360. Other spellings were "Lichtenvelde", "Lytwinwalde", "Lichtinwalde" and "Lychinwald". It was probably subordinate to the Schnallenstein Castle and after its destruction by the Hussites in 1428 it fell to the Bohemian sovereign together with the latter. During the Thirty Years' War , the St. Sebastian Church, which has already been documented for 1384, was looted by imperial troops. In 1684 the royal chamber sold Lichtenwalde 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". In 1684, the Lichtenwald dominion consisted of 44 farmers and 22 cottagers . This also included the jurisdiction over the free judge property .

After the Silesian Wars , Lichtenwalde and the County of Glatz came to Prussia in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg . Evidence for the beginning of the 18th century: a branch church, a rectory, a school building, 43 farmers, 23 gardeners and cottagers as well as two church gardeners. After the reorganization of Prussia, Lichtenwalde 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 667 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Lichtenwalde came under Polish administration in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Poręba . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . Since numerous residents left Poręba again in the next few decades, the number of inhabitants decreased significantly. 1975-1998 Poręba belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg )

Freirichtergut

Around 1540 the Freirichtergut belonged to Blasius Jenke, who sold it to Melchior Behm in 1545. In 1554 it came to Blasius Leuchtenberg, and in 1561 to Thomas Hauck. In 1585 he was expelled from the country for forgery of documents, and the judicial property passed to his son Georg Hauck. In 1596 it was acquired by the city of Habelschwerdt, which four years later sold it to its citizen Peter Engelhard, who supported the Bohemian class uprising in 1618 . Although he died in 1622, half of the estate was confiscated from his heirs in 1625. For 1632 Hans Engelhard is proven as a judge, probably a son of the aforementioned. In 1650 it belonged to Georg Hauck, whose descendants or relatives kept it until the 19th century.

Church affiliation

The Lichtenwald Church of St. Sebastian is proven to be a parish church for 1384. In 1560 Lichtenwalde belonged to what was then the parish of Oberlangenau. Around 1610 a Lutheran pastor was officiating in Lichtenwalde, and Lichtenwalde was a pastor to which Stuhlseiffen and Peucker also belonged. After the re-conquest of the County of Glatz by the imperial troops in 1623, a Catholic priest was again appointed and Lichtenwalde was downgraded to the branch church of Ebersdorf . Stuhlseiffen and Peucker were detached from Lichtenwalde in 1665 and dedicated to the Seitendorf branch church, with which they came to the re-established parish of Rosenthal in 1665. From 1781 Lichtenwalde was looked after by a permanent chaplain. Today Poręba belongs to the parish of Długopole Górne .
