history

The place could be the earliest founded by Żegota von Benkowicz after 1333, but it was not until 1422 (there is also a forged document allegedly from 1389) when the village of Skawcze was owned by the collegiate monastery in Kleparz near Cracow (now Floriansbasilika ) first mentioned in a document. Jan Długosz (1470–1480) noted Skawcze, villa sub parochia de Zakrzow sita . The name is topographically or ethnically derived from the river name Skawa .

Politically, the village originally belonged to the Duchy of Auschwitz , which existed from 1315 during the period of Polish particularism . Since 1327 consisted suzerainty of the Kingdom of Bohemia . Since 1445 it belonged to the Duchy of Zator , which was sold to the Polish king in 1494. Subsequently, the Duchy of Auschwitz-Zator was completely attached to the Kingdom of Poland in 1564, as the district of Silesia in the Krakow Voivodeship , and from 1569 in the Polish-Lithuanian aristocratic republic .

In the middle of the 16th century it was illegally appropriated by Jan Komorowski, the owner of the Saybusch land . In 1563 he had to return the village of the Starostei of Barwałd.

During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Skawce came to the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804). From 1782 it belonged to the Myslenice district (1819 with the seat in Wadowice ). After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a municipality in the judicial district of Wadowice in the Wadowice District after 1850 .

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Skawce came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the district of Bielitz in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ).

From 1975 to 1998 Skawce was part of the Bielsko-Biała Voivodeship .

In 2017 the reservoir on the Skawa was flooded.
