Sanice (German Sänitz , Sorbian Senica ) is a church village in the municipality of Przewóz, Powiat Żarski , Poland . It is located in the Polish part of Upper Lusatia between Przewóz (German Priebus , Sorbian Přibuz ) and Rothenburg / OL on the Lusatian Neisse near the former Saxon-Silesian border.

geography

Sanice is located south of Droga wojewódzka 350 , which branches off from Droga krajowa 12 after the border town Łęknica (Lugknitz) and shortly afterwards leads along the Neisse to Przewóz. From there it continues in a southerly direction through Bucze (Buchwalde) and the town of Dobrzyń (Dobers) north of Sanice and follows in an easterly direction to Lipna (Leippa) and on to Gozdnica (Freiwaldau) . The border with the Lower Silesian Voivodeship runs east and south-east of Sanice . After the upstream village of Sobolice (Zoblitz) , Sanice is the second southernmost village in the Lubusz Voivodeship . Downriver on the German side of the Neisse are the towns of Ungunst , Steinbach and Klein Priebus .

The Żółta woda (Gelblach) flows through Sanice and flows into the Neisse in the immediate vicinity.

history

Sänitz was documented in 1417 as Senicz mentioned already in 1400 took place the mention of Sandicer Heyde . In 1419, together with the Duke of Sagan , the Görlitz council sent riflemen several times towards Sänitz to take action against robbers. A chapel in Sänitz, supplied by Rothenburg, is mentioned in 1421. According to a handwritten chronicle, the village was said to have been parish in Priebus beforehand.

During the Hussite Wars in 1431 a group of Hussites holed up on the Sänitz manor, which the Görlitz council had arrested in order to exchange them for Hussite prisoners.

At the end of the 15th century and the beginning of the 16th century, Sänitz was several times a refuge and gathering place for robber barons who carried out raids in the region around Freiwaldau , Rauscha , Muskau , Bunzlau and Sagan .

The village was temporarily connected with the rulership of Muskau , which lasted until shortly before Sänitz.

During the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648), the landowner Hans Kasper von Nostitz was fatally injured in 1641 by enemy troops.

The Muskau registrar Kurt Reinicke von Callenberg had the church built in 1566 replaced by a larger new building in 1666. A tower matching the half-timbered church was only built in 1724. In 1772, the branch church of the Rothenburg Church became a fully-fledged sister church, in which services have been held every week since then, as well as baptisms and weddings. Four years later Steinbach was parish off to Sänitz.

In 1813, during the Wars of Liberation , Sänitz was sacked by 70 soldiers. The Kingdom of Saxony had to cede large parts of the country in 1815 as it was determined during the Congress of Vienna , as it previously fought on the Napoleonic side. Among other things, Lower Lusatia and a large part of Upper Lusatia came under Prussian rule. Through the subsequent administrative reform in Prussia, Sänitz was assigned to the Rothenburg district (Ob. Laus.) Founded in 1816 .

There was an iron hammer in Sänitz for over 300 years . In the middle of the 19th century a paper mill was built near the village . The initially unfavorable traffic situation was improved by the construction of the road from Uhsmannsdorf to Lodenau . The construction of the Horka – Rothenburg – Priebus small railway brought Sänitz a train station in 1908, which had a positive effect on the paper mill's sales. While it still employed 5 workers in 1865, after the construction of the railway there were around 200.

On April 1, 1938, the two localities Dobers and Steinbach with a total of about 500 inhabitants were incorporated into Sänitz, which increased the population of the community to around 1200.

When, after the end of the Second World War, the Oder-Neisse line formed the new border between Germany and Poland as a result of the Stalinist shift to the west , Steinbach became an independent municipality again and Sänitz came under Polish administration under the name of Sanice . The railway line interrupted on the Neisse was taken over on the Polish side by the Polish State Railways and operated between Sanice and Przewóz until 1984, while the remaining section up to the Neisse bridge was dismantled.

In the administrative reform carried out in 1975, Sanice was assigned to the Grünberg Voivodeship .
