Szukalice (German Tschauchelwitz ) is a village in the municipality Żórawina (German Rothsürben ) in Poland . It is located 12 kilometers south of Breslau ( Wrocław ) on the Ślęza and belongs to the powiat Wrocławski .
history
About one kilometer southeast of Tschauchelwitz, an der Lohe, there was an important sugar factory since 1871 . Its forerunner was the sugar factory founded in Jackschönau in 1848 by Wilhelm von Stegmann and Stein. To transport the sugar beets , a field railway was built in 1925 to Jackschönau, 10 km further south. Another light rail line led to Rothsürben, two kilometers to the east, and offered a connection to the railway line to Breslau . The raw sugar could be transported by train to the large sugar factory in Klettendorf near Breslau for further refining .
During the Nazi era , Tschauchelwitz was renamed Rübenau in 1937 ; the sugar factory, however, kept the name and was then called Tschauchelwitzer sugar factory Rübenau .
After the Second World War , the place came to Poland in 1945. During an administrative reform in 1975 Szukalice became part of the newly formed Wroclaw Voivodeship . After its dissolution, the place was part of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship from 1999.
