Turów (German Thauer ) is a village in the municipality of Ścinawa ( Steinau an der Oder ) in Poland. It belongs to the Powiat Lubiński ( Lüben district ) of the Lower Silesian Voivodeship .

geography

The place is located in Lower Silesia , three kilometers west of the small town of Ścinawa. The plain west of the Oder is about 20 meters above the river and is used intensively for agriculture.

history

The place goes back to a manor that belonged to August Ferdinand of Prussia at the end of the 18th century . It consisted of two parts, Nieder- and Ober-Thauer , each with an outwork . 53 people lived in Nieder-Thauer and 99 people in Ober-Thauer. In the latter there was a windmill, a Kretscham and four other houses. In addition, two cottagers and seven gardeners settled here . In Nieder-Thauer there lived two cottagers with their own land and five gardeners who were obliged to do labor.

Around 1810, the Thauer estate was transferred to state property as part of the secularization of church property; In 1816 it became part of the newly founded Prussian district of Steinau . For a long time the estate was managed by a von Nostiz family, then by the royal chamberlain, Count von Hoverdem, followed by the Imperial Count von Schmettau . In the meantime Thauer has become a casket of the emperor (casket = private property). According to oral tradition, the estate was said to have been a godparent baptism gift for the future Kaiser Wilhelm II . On July 1, 1916, Max Toepsch leased the Thauer estate from the “Hof Fideikomis”. In 1926 the Prussian state took over this property, administered by the Prussian Domain Treasury. In 1932 the district of Steinau and thus also Thauer was attached to the district of Wohlau (today Wołów).

According to information in the Silesian Goods Address Book from 1937, the domain included a total of 244.7 hectares of land, of which 211.7 hectares were class II and III fields, 16.2 hectares of meadows, 1.5 hectares of pasture, 0.3 hectares of water, 2, 4 hectares of gardens and parks, 7.7 hectares of forest, 4.8 hectares of courtyard and paths, and a distillery. From the division of land use it can be seen that Gut Thauer was a purely arable farm with a small proportion of grassland and heavy animal husbandry. This also applied to the neighboring farms and farms.

After the Second World War , the region with Gut Thauer and almost all of Silesia was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power . The villagers were evicted from the village by the local Polish administration .
