history

In 1254, Margrave Konrad von Brandenburg received the Zantoch castellan from Wielkopolska Duke Przemysł I as a dowry for the marriage to his daughter. In a strategically favorable location, on the so-called Markgrafenweg from Landsberg to the east, Konrad built a castle in a Slavic village of unknown name during the development phase of Neumark . In 1269 he gave the town German town charter. The castle was destroyed by Przemysł I in 1272. Even before 1286, the margrave gave the newly created town Magdeburg town charter and the name Friedeberg , probably derived from the Friedeberg family from the Saalkreis , from which relatives were in his entourage . Friedeberg was laid out according to plan within a circular fortification with a chessboard-like city plan and settled with immigrants from the area of ​​the lower Saale and the Harz foreland .

In the 14th century, the city gained in importance when it received the sole navigation rights for nets and Warta in 1345, raised to the place of jurisdiction in 1348 and granted market justice in 1363. She fared less well in the next century. The Brandenburg electors had lost interest in the Neumark, and the Teutonic Order, which acquired the land in 1402, did little to further develop it. Robber barons, Polish and Hussite armies used the power vacuum to plunder through the country. The Hussites destroyed the city in 1433. During the Thirty Years' War , imperial troops burned the city down in 1637. At the end of the war the population had sunk to 20 percent of the pre-war level. In 1717 Friedeberg became a Prussian garrison, which resulted in an economic boom. In the 18th century it benefited directly from the drainage program for the network break, which had been initiated by Frederick the Great in 1770. Friedeberg's location on an army road, however, led to a prolonged occupation by the Russians during the Seven Years' War . Even in the war of 1806/07 , marches left havoc. In the meantime, industrial and commercial enterprises had settled in Friedeberg. The cloth-making, brewery, shoemaking and, from 1781, the manufacture of ammunition were not insignificant.

With the Prussian administrative reorganization in 1816 Friedeberg became the district town of the district of the same name in the administrative district of Frankfurt in the province of Brandenburg . When building modern traffic routes, the city was initially only able to benefit from the Berlin – Königsberg state road , which it touched directly. The equally important stretch of the Eastern Railway ran seven kilometers to the south, and it was not until 1897 that the connection to the main railway network was created with the construction of the Friedeberger Kleinbahn. Even during the phase of industrialization at the end of the 19th century, Friedeberg was unable to shake off the character of an agricultural town, because only small businesses producing furniture, tiles and leather goods settled there.

When the province of Grenzmark Posen-West Prussia was dissolved in 1938 , Friedeberg and the district became part of the Pomerania province . On the eve of the Second World War , about 6,100 people lived in the city.

Towards the end of the Second World War, the Red Army took Friedeberg almost without a fight on January 29, 1945 and deliberately burned about 80 percent of the city. After the war ended, the city was placed under Polish administration. The residents were evicted by the local Polish administrative authority and replaced by Poles .

Ukrainians and Lemks who were forcibly resettled from the Beskids came to the newly settled Poles in 1947 as part of the Vistula action within Poland . They created their own cultural center in the former water tower to maintain their traditions. Friedberg was named Strzelce Krajeńskie in 1946. This name goes back to the Slavic name of the place, which already existed before the German settlement in the 13th century in the form of Strelci and means about place of archers .

Attractions

The three-aisled St. Mary's Church from the 13th century, burned down by the Hussites, was rebuilt in 1433 as a brick hall church and equipped with a star vault in the interior. In 1697 the tower was given a baroque tower. The interior and crowning of the tower burned down in February 1945 and the roof of the nave collapsed. Between 1971 and 1973 the church was rebuilt.

More than 1000 meters of the up to eight meters high field stone wall and the Gothic Driesener Tor (Młyńska) are still preserved from the medieval city ​​fortifications .

Near the Driesener gate is a 1764-built brick granary .

The Berlin sculptor Steinemann created the war memorial in 1870/71 for the Friedeberg district, which was inaugurated in 1879. A Germania statue stood on the base .
