history
The first written mention of the place comes from the year 1145. In 1177 Cistercian monks settled in the area and built the local monastery Sulejów . The town received its town charter between 1279 and 1292. In 1313 Władysław I. Ellenlang gave the town the right to trade in salt , meat and cloth . In 1388 Władysław II gave Jagiełło Sulejów the right to a weekly market , every Wednesday. With the third partition of Poland , the place became part of Prussia in 1795 . With the formation of the Duchy of Warsaw , the place became part of the same in 1807 and part of Congress Poland in 1815 . The Cistercian monastery was closed four years later. In 1870 a reform of the city law on Polish soil was carried out by Tsar Alexander II , in which the number of cities was reduced from 452 to 114. Sulejów was one of the towns that lost their town charter. In 1899 the planning of a narrow-gauge railway to Piotrków Trybunalski began . The railway began operating in 1904. In 1927 the place was given city rights again. During the German invasion of Poland , Sulejów was bombed by the Luftwaffe on September 4, 1939 .
