history
Gläsendorf developed around a glassworks on the Glasewasser , which already existed in the 15th century. It was parish to the parish church of St. Peter and Paul in Reinerz . After the branch church of Rückers was elevated to a parish church in 1743, Gläsendorf, together with Hartau and Utschendorf, was separated from the Reinerzer parish church and assigned to the parish church in Rückers.
After the Silesian Wars , Gläsendorf and the County of Glatz came to Prussia in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg . After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and from 1816 was incorporated into the district of Glatz , with which it remained connected until 1945. Because of the proximity to the Friedrichsgrunder and the Waldstein glassworks , several glass mills gained economic importance. One was probably built in the 1840s by the innkeeper Franz Losky, the later founder of the Oranienhütte in Schreckendorf . Eduard Groß and Josef Heinze operated grinding shops in Gläsendorf until 1945, both of which were also active in glass trading and shipping.
As a result of the Second World War , Gläsendorf fell to Poland in 1945, like almost all of Silesia, and was renamed Szklarnia . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . Until 1974 Szklarnia belonged to the Wrocław Voivodeship and then to 1998 to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship (German Waldenburg ).
