history

Siedlec was first mentioned in 1513 with the name Czelc . The late mention of the place name suggests a derivation from the Old Sorbian “sedl” or “sedlo”, which means “ settlement ”. The place name Zelz was mentioned for the first time in 1523 , other spellings were Zeltz in 1579 and Zscheltz in 1588, the Sorbian name Selc is first recorded in 1843. The Polish place name Siedlec also means "settlement".

Historically the manor belonged Zelz as Vasallengut to rule Pförten . As a result of the Vienna Congress Zelz was from the Kingdom of Saxony in the Kingdom of Prussia reclassified, where the municipality in the district of Sorau in the administrative district of Frankfurt in the province of Brandenburg was. In 1826 (both today German and the Polish part of today) were part of the former manor Zelz a Vorwerk , a stately sheep farm , a colony , a water mill , a bleach and a customs house . At that time the place had a total of 175 inhabitants in 24 houses and was parish after Triebel. In the topographical-statistical overview of the administrative district of Frankfurt adO from 1844, a village pitcher belonging to Zelz with the name of the Snow King is mentioned. Zelz had a total of 230 inhabitants. In 1864 there were 182 inhabitants in Zelz and 43 in the Snow King colony.

On February 5, 1933, the municipality of Zelz merged with the neighboring municipality of Bahren to form the new municipality of Zelz-Bahren . After the end of the Second World War and the establishment of the Oder-Neisse border on August 2, 1945, the part of the village east of the Lusatian Neisse was converted to Polish and into the municipality of Trzebiel in the Zielona Góra Voivodeship . The place name was changed to Siedlec, the former German residents were expelled and the place was taken up by new Polish settlers. The village of Siedlec today consists of nine properties. Since the completion of a bridge over the Neisse in 2008, the German-Polish bridge festival has been held in Siedlec on the second Saturday in September, alternating on the Polish and German sides .
