history
The small village developed below the castle of the same name, which was probably built in the first half of the 14th century, but was first mentioned in 1396. At that time the castle was part of a chain of castles ( Adlerhorst castles ), which were supposed to secure both the border of the Kingdom of Poland to neighboring Silesia and the most important trade route from Krakow through Olkusz and Bytom to Wroclaw ( Via Regia ). This had become necessary because Silesia had come under the rule of Bohemia , with whose rulers the Polish kings were in conflict. Iwo de Rapstyn was mentioned in 1398 , from 1399 to 1441 Rabsteyn and neighboring villages belonged to the Melsztyński family . The name is derived from the word Raben ( Middle High German rabe, rap; rappe, rapp - shortened * Rabstīn or * Rapstīn: mhd b> high Middle High German b / p; mhd. Ei> ē> ī) with the suffix -stein (meaning Burg ), Polonized as Rabsztyn ( na Rabsztinie , 1564). The castle was destroyed by Sweden in 1657.
The place initially belonged to the Kingdom of Poland (from 1569 in the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania ), Krakow Voivodeship , Proszowice district. When Poland was partitioned for the third time in 1795, Rabsztyn became part of the Habsburg Empire . In the years 1807-1815 the village belonged to the Duchy of Warsaw , from 1815 to 1918 it became part of the Congress of Poland . In 1827 there were only 5 houses and 45 residents in the village.
In 1918, after the end of World War I , Rabsztyn became part of Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the district of Ilkenau in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ).
From 1975 to 1998 Rabsztyn was part of the Katowice Voivodeship .
