history

Sarnowa was first mentioned in 1248. The earliest mention of Sarnowa as a city is a document from 1262 issued by Bolesław VI. , the Duke of Greater Poland. In this the "Civitate nomine Sarnow" is released from all public burdens for 10 years. Sarnowa was already mentioned as a city ( civitas ) back then . A certain date is only in 1407, when "Sarnowce" was also granted Magdeburg law . In the 13th century the town was owned by the Silesian monastery Trebnitz . From the 15th century it was owned by a landlord. Protestant religious refugees settled in the city especially in the 17th century.

Sarne came to the Kingdom of Prussia in the course of the Second Partition of Poland in 1793 as part of the Province of South Prussia . After a brief affiliation with the Duchy of Warsaw from 1807 to 1815, the city came back to Prussia as part of the Grand Duchy of Posen (Province of Posen). Sarne belonged there to the Kröben district until 1887 and then to the newly formed Rawitsch district .

In the course of the Wielkopolska uprising in 1848 and the planned division of the province into a German and a Polish part, the citizens of the cities of Rawitsch and Sarne demanded the connection to Silesia and thus to the German Confederation.

After the First World War, parts of the Rawitsch district were occupied by Polish militants in the Wielkopolska uprising from 1918 to 1919. Most of the German-populated district area, including Rawitsch and Sarne, remained under German control. In the Versailles Treaty , however, except for the rural community of Schlemsdorf ( Szmezdrowo ), the entire Rawitsch district had to be ceded to Poland. The evacuation and delivery took place between January 17 and February 4, 1920. The Rawitsch district became the Polish powiat Rawicki .

In the interwar period there was a strong migration of the population to the German Empire. After Sarne was conquered by the Wehrmacht at the beginning of the Second World War in 1939 , the place was attached to the Rawitsch district in the newly formed Reichsgau Wartheland . In the spring of 1945 the Red Army occupied the region. In the following period, the remaining German residents were expelled from Sarne by the local Polish administrative authorities .

1973 Sarnowa was incorporated into Rawicz.
