history

Sewerien Castle

Matthias Church

Siewierz was first mentioned in a document in 1125. In 1177 Casimir II enfeoffed Mieszko I with the city. In 1241 the city was burned to the ground by the Mongols .

In 1276 Siewierz received city rights . On February 26, 1289, a battle took place in front of the city gates, in which Władysław I. Ellenlang defeated the troops of Henry IV (Silesia) .

In 1337, Duke Wladislaus von Bytom and Kosel sold the Duchy of Sewerien to Duke Casimir I of Teschen . On December 30, 1443, Bishop Zbigniew Oleśnicki from Kraków bought it . The purchase price was 6000 Prague groschen . The city became the seat of the bishops of Krakow, who in future carried the title of Duke of Siewierz. The duchy was not part of Poland. As a result, a castle was built as a ducal seat.

In 1790 the Duchy of Siewierz briefly became part of the Kingdom of Poland . In 1795 Siewierz was annexed by Prussia as part of the Third Partition of Poland and became the capital of the newly formed province of New Silesia . In 1800 Siewierz lost the bishopric.

In 1807 Napoleon restored the duchy of Siewierz and entrusted Jean Lannes with the duchy. After the Wars of Liberation , the city became part of Congress Poland .

As a result, the city continuously lost its importance and lost its city rights in 1870. From 1954 to 1957 Siewierz was the seat of a Gromada . From January 1, 1958 Siewierz received the status of an Osiedle . On July 18, 1962, it was given city status again.

From 1975 to 1998 the city was part of the Katowice Voivodeship .
