history

Pfaffendorf was first mentioned in 1292 in the deed of foundation of the Grüssau monastery as "Sorotindorff". It was one of the 14 villages that, together with the city of Liebau, were transferred to the monastery with all taxes, rights and obligations and formed the basis of the Stiftsland. Later the name “Pfafindorff” came up for “Sorotindorff”, from which the spelling “Pfaffendorf” developed. Around 1350 Pfaffendorf was left to the ducal castellan Conrad von Czirn ( Tschirn ) in (Bolken) Hayn and fell back to the monastery after his death. The von Wallenberg, von Seidlitz and von Leckow families later got it . Together with the Duchy of Schweidnitz-Jauer it came to the Crown of Bohemia in 1392 . After the First Silesian War , it fell to Prussia together with Silesia in 1742 . After the reorganization of Prussia in 1815, it belonged to the province of Silesia and from 1816 was incorporated into the Landeshut district, with which it remained connected until 1945. In 1873 Pfaffendorf owned the chamberlain Gustav von Heinen . It formed its own rural community and has been the seat of the district of the same name since 1874 , which also included the rural communities of Neu Weißbach ( Neuweißbach ), Nieder Haselbach ( Niederhaselbach ) and the Pfaffendorf estate. In addition to the estate economy, a brewery and tourism were of economic importance. 1939 715 inhabitants lived in Pfaffendorf.

As a result of the Second World War , Pfaffendorf fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Szarocin . The German population was expelled . Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . 1975-1998 Szarocin belonged to the Jelenia Góra Voivodeship .
