Stubendorf ( Polish Izbicko ) is a village and capital of the rural community of the same name in the Upper Silesian powiat Strzelecki in the Opole Voivodeship , which has been bilingual (Polish and German) since 2006.
geography
The street village Stubendorf is 15 kilometers southwest of Opole and 10 kilometers northwest of Strzelce Opolskie (Groß Strehlitz) in the Silesian lowlands.
history
The first written mention of the place name comes from a document of the Breslau bishop Johann III. Romka from November 17, 1295, in which the parish of Istbisco or Yczbczko was confirmed. In 1318 the local parish church was mentioned, which belonged to the Archipresbyterat Groß Strehlitz. Originally the Vorwerk Stubendorf belonged to the Opole dukes and from 1556 came into the possession of various noble families, most recently from 1811 to 1945 by those of Strachwitz .
Stubendorf had been Prussian since 1742 and from 1816 belonged to the district of Groß Strehlitz .
After the referendum in Upper Silesia in 1921, which resulted in 439 votes (69.4%) in favor of remaining with Germany in Dorf and Gut Stubendorf, the Third Polish Uprising broke out in the region. The local Strachwitz Castle was set on fire and ravaged by insurgents. The place remained in the Weimar Republic and came to Poland as Izbicko after the Second World War in 1945 .

Attractions
- The Catholic parish church of St. John the Baptist was originally made of wood and received a stone tower in 1829. The neo-Romanesque nave followed in 1852, and a transept and a new choir were added in 1908. The massive tower with a pyramid roof was also given its present shape at that time. The church stands in the middle of the local cemetery, on which there is a Baroque Nepomuk statue from the 18th century.
- The classicist building of the Stubendorfer Palace was destroyed in 1921 and then renewed in neo-baroque style in 1923–1932. Since then, with its mansard roof over the two-storey central building, which is crowned by a gable , and the protruding, single-storey side risers , it has been reminiscent of its historical Baroque form, handed down in drawings by Friedrich Bernhard Werner .
