Sława ( German Schlawa , 1937-1945 Schlesiersee ) is a town in the powiat Wschowski of the Lubusz Voivodeship in Poland with 3900 inhabitants.
Geographical location
The village is located in Lower Silesia at the confluence of the Upper Obra (formerly also called Scharnitz , Polish Czernica ) in the largest lake in Silesia , the Schlawaer See ( Jezioro Sławskie ), about 24 kilometers north of the city of Głogów (Glogau) .
history
The place Schlawa was founded in the 13th century. The exact time when Schlawa received town rights is not known, when it was first mentioned on the partition of the Duchy of Glogau in 1312, she already had them.
Schlawa was initially part of the Glogauer Weichbild , but became a seat of nobility in the 15th century. In 1468 the town came into the possession of the von Rechenberg family . In 1506 Schlawa came to the Kingdom of Bohemia . After the Battle of the White Mountain , the property of the Rechenberger was confiscated and came into the possession of the von Barwitz family , Barons von Fernelmont , which went out in 1884. From 1886 to 1945 the Moravian counts of Haugwitz owned the Schlawa manor.
The border with Greater Poland ran north-east of the city, which was provided with three city gates but was not walled . In addition to fishing in the lake, agriculture and border trade with Poland were the main sources of income for the residents. In 1721 and 1765, two big city fires broke out in Schlawa. Since 1499 a guild of cloth makers was resident in the city . Its importance as a cloth-making town declined more and more since the Thirty Years' War, and around 1830 they emigrated to Lodsch, then Russia .
In 1735 a new palace was built. In 1742 the city came to Prussia . The Protestant parish built a church on the market square in 1834, the Michaelis Church, which dates back to the 14th century, has belonged to the Catholics since the Counter-Reformation .
In 1820 Schlawa was assigned to the Freystadt district . After its dissolution in 1932, the city became part of the district of Glogau , to which the city had belonged between 1816 and 1820.
Around 1900 the city had a Protestant and a Catholic church. Schlawa received a railway connection in 1913 . When the province of Poznan became part of Poland after the First World War , the city became a border town again. Due to this peripheral location, Schlawa lost its importance. In 1921 the village of Schlawa was incorporated, and Gut Schlawa has been part of the city since 1928.
During the Nazi rule, the Slavic place name was renamed and the city, like the lake, was given the name Schlesiersee . In the Second World War in the - was in Schlesiersee outworks Vorwerk Vorwerk and New Bänisch - a satellite camp of Gross-Rosen concentration camp . In the last months of the war the misplaced Reichssicherheitshauptamt part of its archives and library, which mainly consisted of stolen together in Europe books, under Rolf Mühler in the castle Sława . The materials were then widely scattered and archivists and academic antiquarians were only able to look for traces of them after the political change.
Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in February 1945 . Shortly afterwards, Schlawa was placed under Polish administration. The residents were expelled and replaced by immigrating Poles .
In the first years after the end of the war, Sława was the seat of the Powiat Głogowski , as there were no buildings for the district administration in Głogów due to the war damage. Schools and other public institutions also found temporary accommodation in Sława.
Today the city is a tourist destination.
