history

Bladen was first mentioned in 1283. It belonged to the Premyslid Duchy of Opava , which was built in 1269 for Duke Nicholas I , an illegitimate son of the Bohemian King Ottokar II Přemysl . Although after the death of Duke Nicholas II the Duchy of Opava was divided in 1365, Bladen remained with Opava. In 1420 Duke Přemysl I sold Bladen to John von Bladen and his brothers. In 1470 it was owned by the Lords of Füllstein , who also called themselves Füllstein auf Bladen ( Fulštejn z Vladěnína ). They were followed in 1552 by the Füllstein auf Wagstadtl ( Bitovský z Bítova u Bílovce ), which built Bladen Castle in 1567. In 1618, Bladen acquired the Haugwitz , from which it passed to the Barons Nayhauß-Cormons in 1652. They were accepted into the imperial counts in 1698 and owned Bladen until 1910.

After the First Silesian War , Bladen, like almost all of Silesia, fell to Prussia in 1742 . Ecclesiastically it still belonged to the Diocese of Olomouc , whereby the part of the diocese that fell to Prussia was administered by the Katscher Commissariat founded in 1742 . For the year 1783 there are two mills, 26 farmers and 59 cottagers. The population was 804. With the reorganization of Prussia, Bladen belonged to the Province of Silesia from 1815 and was incorporated into the Leobschütz district from 1818 , with which it remained connected until 1945. In 1859 15 master craftsmen from Bladen founded a guild of carpenters, turners, wheelwright, blacksmiths, shoemakers, saddlers and tailors. Since 1874, the rural community of Bladen belonged to the district of the same name , which also included Josefsthal and Wanowitz and the Bladen manor district. In 1895 the Josefsthal colony was incorporated into Bladen. In 1916, the later Auxiliary Bishop of Olomouc, Joseph Martin Nathan , set up a branch in Bladen for the sanatoriums and nursing homes he set up in Branitz. In 1939 Bladen had 1,364 inhabitants.

As a result of the Second World War , Bladen, like most of Silesia, fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Włodzienin . The German population was expelled. Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland .
