history

From 1185 the place belonged to the new Koprzywnica monastery because it was first mentioned in a document in 1227 as a village owned by the Cistercians, namely as the seat of a deanery in the diocese of Krakow , which is of great importance to the Polish village on the border of Red Ruthenia ( conquered by Poland around 1344) testified. The deanery comprised the Polish part of the Sanok lowlands. In 1353 the place received Magdeburg law , but from the end of the 14th century Zrencin lost its importance in favor of the new town of Kołaczyce of the Cistercians and the new seat of the deanery, Jasło .

Politically, the village belonged to the district of Biecz , Krakow Voivodeship , Kingdom of Poland , from 1569 in the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania . During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Zręcin became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804). From 1855 Zręcin belonged to the Krosno District . Thanks to the extraction of oil in the area from the late 19th century onwards, Zrencin's new golden age came. The city elevation was planned, but to no avail before the crisis of the 1930s .

After the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Habsburg monarchy , Zręcin came to Poland in 1918. This was only interrupted by the German occupation of Poland in World War II . From 1975 to 1998 Zręcin was part of the Krosno Voivodeship .
