history

The Krynka in Szklary
St. Michael Church

The village was founded in the 13th century under German law as an elongated row village. In the work Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from the years 1295–1305, the place is first mentioned as Glezeri villa . For the year 1369, the place name Glesindorf has been handed down, as well as the first mention of a church in the place.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Gläsendorf and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . A new stone church was built between 1752 and 1765. During a flood in August 1779, numerous houses in the village were destroyed.

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Gläsendorf belonged to the district of Grottkau in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1833 a Catholic school was established in the village. In 1845 there was a Vorwerk, a Catholic parish church, a Scholtisei, a Catholic school, a brewery, a distillery, a coffee house, two taverns, a head forester's office and 193 other houses in the village. In the same year 193 people lived in Gläsendorf, 60 of them Protestants. In 1855 there were 1297 people in Gläsendorf. In 1865 there were 43 farmers, 44 gardeners, 37 cottagers, three water mills, a brewery with an inn and two inns. The Catholic school was attended by 1281 students in the same year. In 1874 the district of Gläsendorf was founded, which consisted of the rural communities Gläsendorf and the manor district Gläsendorf. The first head of office was the economic inspector König. In 1885 Gläsendorf had 1,119 inhabitants.

In 1933 there were 1018 people in Gläsendorf and 1024 people in 1939. Until the end of the war in 1945, the place belonged to the Grottkau district .

As a result of the Second World War, Gläsendorf fell under Polish administration in 1945, like most of Silesia . It was subsequently renamed Szklary and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. The German population was largely expelled . In 1950 it was incorporated into the Opole Voivodeship. In 1999 the place came to the re-established Powiat Nyski.
