Zduny ( German 1943–1945 Treustädt ) is a city in Poland in the Greater Poland Voivodeship . It is the seat of the town and country municipality of the same name in the Powiat Krotoszyński .

history

Zduny on the border with Silesia , south of the city of Poznan and south of the city of Krotoschin , on a map of the province of Poznan from 1905 (areas marked in yellow indicate areas with a predominantly Polish- speaking population at the time ).

The first documentary mention dates back to 1241. At that time it was a ducal village and was called Sdunkow . The name of the village should be derived from "the many potters [...] who once lived here". In 1261, with the permission of Duke Boleslaus the Pious of Greater Poland, Zduny was elevated to the status of a town under Neumarkt law . As a result of the Counter Reformation , a mass exodus from Silesia led to a significant influx of Protestants from around 1630 , which contributed to a significant expansion of Zduny by around 2000 settlers. Landlord Peter Sienuta allowed the establishment of the Neustadt Deutsch-Zduny and the Protestant parish in 1637. With a third settlement laid out as a town in 1647 under the name of Sienutowo, the other two were united in 1772 under the rule of the Sułkowski family . In 1703 the cities of Sienutowo and Deutsch-Zduny were largely destroyed by fire and rebuilt.

In 1793, at the Second Partition of Poland , the city became part of Prussia . At the end of the 18th century, the city had seven public buildings, two hospitals, an Evangelical and a Catholic church and 439 residential buildings, seven of which had a tile roof. From 1807 to 1815 Zduny belonged to the Duchy of Warsaw , then back to Prussia.

The connection to the rail network took place in 1894 with the Oels - Jarotschin connection of the Prussian State Railways . After the First World War , Zduny became part of the re-established Poland on January 10, 1920 . In September 1939 the city was occupied by the German Wehrmacht as part of the attack on Poland , on October 26th it was incorporated into the part of the German Reich, later called Reichsgau Wartheland , in violation of international law and renamed Treustädt on May 18th, 1943.

In the spring of 1945, towards the end of the Second World War , the area was occupied by the Red Army . Unless the German population fled before the end of the war, they were subsequently expelled by the local Polish administrative authorities .

Religions

Evangelical Lutheran Church until 1945

With the approval for the establishment of the Protestant parish, the first Protestant church was built as a wooden structure in 1637. After it was destroyed by fire in 1789, the next church was built as a plastered brick building with double wooden galleries according to plans by the Wroclaw builder JF Hansen and consecrated on November 18, 1792. The church was used as a warehouse until 1989 after the end of World War II.
