history

The first documentary mention of the village of Smogorwicz , four kilometers east of the pasture not far from the border between the Duchy of Opole and Greater Poland, dates back to 1288. According to old chronicles, the place is much older. Smogerow is said to have been the seat of the Silesian diocese much earlier . In his Chronica Poloniae principum (1382-1385) who wrote canons Peter von Pitschen from Brieg , Schmograu had since 965 been the Silesian bishops of the seat and this was in the year 1041 in the castle Ritschen and only 1,051 to Wroclaw been laid. The chronicler names five bishops whose seat is said to have been in Schmograu.

However, March 15, 1000 is considered to be a certain date when the diocese of Breslau was founded as a suffragan of the Archdiocese of Gniezno . As a result of the pagan uprisings of 1037-1038, the remote village of Schmograu was probably the refuge of the bishop, who in 1041 made the safer castle Ritschen his seat.

All church structures in Silesia were wiped out as a result of the uprising and war, which probably also led to the creation of legends about the first bishopric in Schmograu, which Jan Długosz continued in his Annales seu Cronicae incliti Regni Poloniae in the middle of the 15th century .

The church in Schmograu has been documented since 1400. After the scrap wood church burned down, a new building took place between 1861 and 1863 . Until the abolition of the sovereign rights and land ownership of the diocese in 1810 , Schmograu was the property of the prince-bishop. Between 1816 and 1945 the place was part of the Namslau district. In 1939 Schmograu had 678 inhabitants. In 1945 Schmograu was placed under the administration of the People's Republic of Poland . Today Poles live in the place, some of whom come from the former eastern parts of Poland .
