history
Pyrzowice is mentioned for the first time in 1340 as a property of the Norbertan women in Zwierzyniec near Krakow , at that time it was in the Duchy of Teschen or Duchy of Siewierz , which was sold to the Krakow bishops in 1443 with the village of Pirzowicze . In the following centuries the village had different owners. The patronymic name is derived from the personal name Pyrz.
In the course of the Third Partition of Poland , Prussia became part of New Silesia in 1795 . In 1807 it came to the Duchy of Warsaw and in 1815 to the newly formed Russian-dominated Congress Poland . After the end of the First World War , Pyrzowice came to Poland. In 1921, the village of Pyrzowice in the Ożarowice municipality in the powiat Będziński of the Kielce Voivodeship had 71 houses with 397 inhabitants, all of whom were Roman Catholic Poles.
During the attack on Poland in 1939, the village was occupied by the Germans and the powiat Będziński was assigned to the district of Bendsburg in the new "East Upper Silesia". In 1940 the German Air Force set up a military airfield in the northern area of the village . After the Second World War , the Red Army was on the airfield until 1951 . Then the Polish Air Force took over the airfield. In 1966 the first civil flight connection was started. Katowice Airport developed from this. The Polish Air Force handed the airport over to civilian hands on May 1, 1994.
From 1954 to 1972 the village belonged to the Gromada Ożarowice . From 1950 to 1998 the village belonged to the Katowice Voivodeship .
