View of the village

Zakrzów [ ˈzakʂuf ] is a village with a Schulzenamt of the municipality of Stryszów in the powiat Wadowicki of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship in Poland .

geography

The place is on the brook Stryszówka on the border of Pogórze Wielickie (foothills) in the north (the mountain Żar, 530 m) and the Middle Beskids in the south, between Stryszów in the west and Bugaj and Stronie in the east. Barwałd Górny is located in the northwest.

history

The place was probably founded in the early 14th century and later belonged to the Dukes of Auschwitz . In 1440 it was bought with some other villages by Mikołaj Serafin, a subordinate of the Polish king and salt counts (Polish żupnik ) of Italian origin. These places were then separated from the Duchy of Auschwitz in the Kingdom of Bohemia and attached to the Kingdom of Poland ("intra terminos Regni [Poloniae et] Regno in perpetuum cedatur"). In other words, they changed state affiliation earlier than the rest of the Duchy of Auschwitz or Zator. That was also on February 3, 1441 by Władysław III. Confirmed in Esztergom : omne ius, quod sibi competebat ratione eius cessionis per ducem in hoc castro et villis Stronye , Leschnycza , Jaroschowcze , Zakrzow et Berwald , quarum tres ultimas Nicolaus gladifer suis pecuniis exempeterat, ac silva Ochodzait in . Barwałd Castle ( castrum Berwald ), which was first mentioned in 1440, was actually not at the bottom of today's village of Barwałd, but on Żar hill within today's administrative boundaries of Zakrzów. The castle was destroyed in 1477.

The above mentioned villages became the Starostei of Barwałd in 1474/1475 . From 1646 Leśnica, Stronie and Zakrzów belonged to Michał Zebrzydowski, the Starost of Lanckorona.

During the first partition of Poland in 1772 Zakrzów became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

In 1884 the Galician Transversal Railway was opened through Zakrzów.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Zakrzów became part of Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II .

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