Geographical location

history
In 1287, the prausnitz, which already existed on an important trade connection between Wroclaw and the Kingdom of Poland , was elevated to a city by Duke Heinrich V of Silesia.
At the end of the 19th century Prausnitz had a Protestant and a Catholic church, a castle, a district court and a shoemaker's shop.
In 1945 Prausnitz belonged to the district Militsch in district Breslau the Prussian province of Lower Silesia of the German Reich .
Towards the end of the Second World War , Prausnitz was occupied by the Red Army in January 1945 . After the end of the war, the city and almost all of Silesia were placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying forces in the summer of 1945 . This introduced the place name Prusice for Prausnitz . Unless the German residents had fled, most of them were subsequently expelled from Prausnitz .
