history

The village is located in the Olsa region (also Teschner Schlesien , Polish Śląsk Cieszyński ). In 1290, during the period of Polish particularism , the new Duchy of Teschen was established . The formation caused a colonization movement. The document Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis (Tithe Register of the Diocese of Wroclaw ) from around 1305 showed around seventeen new villages in the duchy, including " Item in Prochna ". The village was still in the earlier phase of foundation, so the territory of which the tithe was calculated was inexpressible. The name, originally Prochna or Prochno , comes from brown rot , in Polish próchno .

Since 1327 the Duchy of Teschen was the feudal lordship of the Kingdom of Bohemia and since 1526 it belonged to the Habsburg Monarchy .

The parish of Prochna in the Teschen deanery was mentioned in the Peterspfennig register of 1447. After 1540 under Wenceslaus III. Adam the Reformation and the Church was taken over by Lutherans. A special commission returned them to the Catholics on April 15, 1654.

Between the years 1844 and 1863 there was a station on the Kaiser Ferdinands-Nordbahn .

After the abolition of patrimonial from 1850 it was a municipality in Austrian Silesia , Bielitz district and Schwarzwasser judicial district. Meanwhile the ethnographic group Wałasi (subgroup of the Silesians , not to be confused with Wallachians ) took on a clear shape, also living in Pruchna, traditionally speaking Teschen dialects .

From 1907 the municipality belonged to the constituency of Silesia 14 . In the first general, equal, secret and direct Reichsrat election in 1907 , Józef Londzin won there with 107 votes (Polish-Patriotic Union of Silesian Catholics) ahead of his former friend Jan Sztwiertnia (69 votes) and socialist Alojzy Bonczek (7 votes). In the 1911 Reichsrat election there again Józef Londzin (114 votes) won ahead of the pro-German or anti-Polish Józef Kożdoń (75 votes) and the socialist Edmund Chobot (34).

In 1920, after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and the Polish-Czechoslovak border war , Pruchna came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . In 1945 the Catholic Church was almost completely destroyed.

From 1975 to 1998 Pruchna was part of the Bielsko-Biała Voivodeship .
