geography

The place is on the brook Olszynka in Pogórze Ciężkowickie , south of the Brzanka ridge (534 m). The neighboring towns are Ołpiny in the west, Swoszowa in the north, Czermna in the northeast, Święcany in the southeast, and Binarowa in the south.

history

According to the founding privilege of King Casimir the Great , signed on August 23, 1348, the place was founded by the commissioned founder named Iohanni under Magdeburg law with a parish church. Probably invented the same St. John's with his eponymous brother to name the new village after visiting the area of Olszynka Valley before August 1349, because on August 7, another royal foundation privilege for other new settlement upriver in Olpina of St. John's et alteri St. John's followed . The place name Schyrziny appeared, however, only in the year 1386, when it was handed over with the neighboring Olpiny, Święcany and Olszyny to the noble family Melsztyński, based in Melsztyn . The place was later mentioned as Sirzyne (1411), Szyrzina (1421). The name, previously passed down in the singular form Szerzyna , is topographical and denotes an extensive plain ( szerzyna ), which is particularly visible upstream of the Olszynka from Święcany, where the valley widens to form a plain.

Kurt Lück called the village a German settlement. But his criteria were very generous and tendentious. Marcin Wojciech Solarz, however, had found no evidence of this.

Politically, the village belonged to the Kingdom of Poland (from 1569 the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania ), Krakow Voivodeship , Biecz District . Around 1600 the village had over 200 inhabitants.

On March 3rd, the landlord Stefan Uniatycki received a permit to found the small town Stefanów on the Szerzyny estate, but the new name did not establish itself. The town charter was lost during the Galician Peasant Uprising in 1846.

When Poland was first partitioned , Szerzyny became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire in 1772 (from 1804). From 1855 Szerzyny belonged to the Jasło District .

In 1900 the community had an area of ​​1628 hectares, with 332 houses and 1926 inhabitants, all of whom were Polish-speaking, except for Roman Catholics there were 31 Jews.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Szerzyny came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II .

Three military cemeteries are a reminder of the battle of Gorlice-Tarnów .

From 1975 to 1998 Szerzyny was part of the Tarnów Voivodeship .
