history

The village of Scharnosin was first mentioned in 1485 as Czarnozeme . Later church documents from the 17th century call it Czarnozenie and Czanozenie . At that time, Scharnosin belonged to the parish of Leschnitz. In 1783 Scharnosin belonged to Count Colonna. In the place name of Silesia from 1845, Scharnosin was mentioned as Czarnosin and in Polish as Czarnosień . At that time there were four mills and a spirit distillery in the village. In 1861 eleven people practiced a trade. There was an inn.

In the referendum in Upper Silesia on March 20, 1921, which was accompanied by civil war-like conditions in the area , 115 people voted to remain with Germany and 117 for Poland. However, like the entire district of Groß-Strehlitz, Scharnosin remained with the German Empire.

In 1945 the place fell to Poland as Czarnocin .

In 2006, the municipality of Leschnitz , to which Scharnosin belongs as a district, introduced German as an auxiliary language and in 2008 bilingual place names.
