history

Saabor Castle

The open market town with a village used to belong to a class rule. From 1677 to 1683 Johann Heinrich Graf Dünewald had Saabor Castle built here, which was still in the possession of the Count Dünewald after 1700. Subsequently, the general Reichsgraf Friedrich August von Cosel was the owner of the estate, who died here on October 15, 1770. From the 18th to the 20th century, the princes of Schoenaich-Carolath resided in Saabor Palace . In 1816 there was a Catholic church, a Protestant church, a castle, a rectory, an outbuilding and 48 houses in Sabor . The inhabitants, who lived on agriculture and animal husbandry, held a fair four times a year. On July 26, 1811, Saabor suffered a major fire.

Until 1945, the municipality was part of the Grünberg district .

Since her marriage to Johann Georg von Schoenaich-Carolath (1873–1920), Hermine Reuss, the elder line , lived in Saabor Castle until, as a widow, she followed the deposed Kaiser Wilhelm II into exile in Doorner in 1922 and married. After Wilhelm's death, she returned to Saabor in 1941, with her daughter from her first marriage, Princess Henriette von Schoenaich-Carolath (1918–1972), who was married to Prince Karl Franz Joseph of Prussia (1916–1975). Henriette gave birth to the twins Franz Wilhelm Prince of Prussia and Friedrich Christian in 1943 and the younger son Franz-Friedrich Prince of Prussia in 1944 .

Towards the end of the Second World War , the Red Army captured Saabor in spring 1945 and placed it under the administration of the People's Republic of Poland in March / April 1945 . This renamed the place in Zabór , drove out its residents in the following years and settled it with Poles .
