history
The village was first mentioned in 1291 under the name "Wynowicz". From 1338 the name "Cindal" was established after the previous owners, a patrician family Cindal from Breslau. The place arose from a manor that later belonged to the Counts of Saurma . The center of the place was the Catholic Church, a branch church of the parish in Meleschwitz ( Miłoszyce ). The church also belonged to the von Saurma family, who had their ancestral castle in Jeltsch . The dead of the count's family were always buried in the crypt under the church.
Zindel was predominantly agricultural and was dominated by the manor with its 4000 acres of land. There were three Kretschams , two grocery stores , a butcher, a bakery and a blacksmith. The numerous farms ranged in size from 5 to 70 acres. The train station to Breslau was built in the neighboring town of Tschirne . Zindel belonged to the district of Breslau and in 1945 had about 620 inhabitants, half of whom were Catholic and half of whom were Protestant.
On January 20, 1945, the entire population of the place fled from the approaching Soviet troops . Former residents of the village and their descendants now live mainly in the area around Bayreuth and in the villages of the Bogen district .
