history

The place was first mentioned in 1469 as Velshicz , and then as Wielszisz (1578), Welzyz / Welzysz / Wielgisz (1649-1651), Wełdzirz (1785) and so on. The meaning of the original name is unclear. Perhaps it derives from the Hungarian völgyes , the adjective of valley, where * vel denotes flowing water.

During the first partition of Poland in 1772 the village became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

In the early 19th century, the village and the neighboring large mountain area belonged to the Polish landowner Count Joseph von Matkowski. Some German settlements were founded in the area, including Ludwikówka (Leopoldsdorf) , Angelówka , Maksymówka .

In 1900 the municipality of Wełdzirz had 383 houses with 2452 inhabitants, of which 1589 were Ruthenian-speaking, 732 Polish-speaking, 117 German-speaking, 1176 Greek-Catholic, 628 Roman-Catholic, 606 Jews, 42 of other faiths.

After the end of the Polish-Ukrainian War in 1919, the community became part of Poland. In 1921 it had 394 houses with 2173 inhabitants, of which 1469 Ruthenians, 623 Poles, 43 Germans, 47 Jews (nationality), 1469 Greek-Catholic, 456 Roman-Catholic, 28 Protestant, 220 Jews (religion).

During the Second World War , the municipality first belonged to the Soviet Union and from 1941 to the General Government, from 1945 back to the Soviet Union, now part of the Ukraine . In August 1942 all Jews were transported by the Germans to Bolechiv for extermination . In the night between 7th and 8th 1944, 30 Poles were killed by Ukrainian nationalists.
