history

The village is located in the Olsa region (also Teschner Schlesien , Polish Śląsk Cieszyński ).

The place was first mentioned in 1447 as Wislicze . The name is derived from the river Vistula ( Wisła in Polish ).

Politically, the village originally belonged to the Duchy of Teschen , the feudal lordship of the Kingdom of Bohemia , and since 1526 it has belonged to the Habsburg Monarchy .

After the abolition of patrimonial , it formed a community in Austrian Silesia , Bielitz district and the judicial district of Skotschau from 1850 . In the years 1880–1910 the population rose from 313 in 1880 to 425 in 1910, and the majority were Polish-speaking (between 99.5% and 100%). In 1910 everyone was Roman Catholic.

In 1920, after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy and the end of the Polish-Czechoslovak border war , Wiślica came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II .

From 1975 to 1998 Wiślica was part of the Bielsko-Biała Voivodeship .
