history

Alt Altmannsdorf, which in older times was known as Adelsmannsdorf and dialectly as Alzendorf , was probably built in the 12th or 13th century, like the surrounding villages. It was first mentioned in a document in 1291 and at that time belonged to the Duchy of Schweidnitz . In 1321 it came to the newly established Duchy of Münsterberg , whose Duke Bolko II did not transfer his territory to the Crown of Bohemia as a fief until 1336 , which the Habsburgs held from 1526 .

In 1416 the dukes Johann I and Heinrich II. Von Münsterberg sold the Neuhaus rulership , which also included Alt Altmannsdorf, to the Wroclaw Bishop Wenzel von Liegnitz . As a result, it came to the principality of Neisse , in which the Wroclaw bishops had exercised both clerical and secular power since 1290. In the second half of the 16th century, Alt Altmannsdorf was acquired by Abbot Anton von Wallenburg († 1596) from Kamenz . In the Thirty Years War , Alt Altmannsdorf was devastated like the surrounding villages in 1638.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Alt Altmannsdorf, like almost all of Silesia, fell to Prussia . After the abolition of the Kamenz monastery by secularization in 1810, Alt Altmannsdorf, like the rest of the monastery property, came to Princess Friederike Louise Wilhelmine , a daughter of the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm II and later Queen of the Netherlands.

After the reorganization of Prussia, Alt Altmannsdorf had belonged to the province of Silesia since 1815 and was incorporated into the Frankenstein district from 1818 , with which it remained connected until 1945. In 1874 the administrative district Alt Altmannsdorf was established, to which the rural communities Alt Altmannsdorf, Baitzen and Gallenau as well as the manor district Alt Altmannsdorf belonged. In 1939 there were 788 inhabitants in Altmannsdorf.

As a result of the Second World War , Alt Altmannsdorf fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Starczów . The German population was expelled in 1945/46. Some of the newly settled residents were displaced from eastern Poland . From 1975 to 1998 Starczów belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg ). Ecclesiastically, Starczów has been part of the newly founded diocese Świdnica (German Schweidnitz ) since 2004 .
