history

In 1272, Grambvssy was mentioned next to Francisci ( Pławy ) in a document that could be linked to Wilczkowice or Zaborze .

The place name Wylczkowicze was first mentioned in 1457 when it was bought by the Polish king with the Duchy of Auschwitz .

In 1564 Wilczkowice was completely incorporated as part of the new Silesia District of the Krakow Voivodeship to the Kingdom of Poland , from 1569 the Polish-Lithuanian aristocratic republic .

When Poland was first partitioned , Wilczkowice became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire in 1772 (from 1804). From 1782 the village belonged to the Myslenice district (1819 with the seat in Wadowice ). After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a parish in the Biała District from 1850 .

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Wilczkowice became part of Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the district of Bielitz in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ).

From 1975 to 1998 Wilczkowice was part of the Brzeszcze municipality in the Katowice Voivodeship .
