Zubrzyca Górna ( Slovak Vyšná Zubrica , Hungarian Felsőzubrica ) is a village with a school administration of the municipality Jabłonka in the powiat Nowotarski of the Lesser Poland Voivodeship in Poland .

geography

The place is located on the Zubrzycki stream east of the Babia Góra mountain .

history

The place is in the Arwa landscape , which belonged to the Kingdom of Hungary until 1918 . The place Zubrzyca was first mentioned in 1567, but was only founded in 1614. The founder and first mayor was Ostosz, who died shortly afterwards, so the place was re-established by Andrzej Moniak after the privilege of Elżbieta Czobor and her son Emerich Thurzo . The first settlers came from the Żywiec (Saybusch) area in Poland. At that time the place had a second name Bubenske .

In 1674 the family was monia for help in the recatholicization of Arwa of I. Leopold thanked and ennobled . In 1683 the place was destroyed twice, by the Kurucs of Emmerich Thököly and by the troops of Kazimierz Sapieha marching to Vienna , and then again in the uprising of Franz II Rákóczi (1703 to 1711).

From 1651 the local Catholics belonged to the parish in Orawka , from 1687 to Podwilk . In 1714 the first wooden church was donated by Stanisław Moniak, and in 1787 the parish in Zubrzyca Górna (in the Diocese of Spiš , since 1920 Diocese of Krakow ) was established.

In the 19th century, Slovak became the language of the church and schools, but the local Gorals spoke Goral , a dialect of Polish descent. In 1897 Polish activists started national agitation. In 1910 the Hungarian administration followed the Polish request for the first time in the census and Goral was considered Polish. In that year the village had 1,345 inhabitants, 9 Hungarian-speaking, 26 German-speaking, 25 Slovak-speaking, 1285 foreign-speaking (95.5%, Polish-speaking), 1322 Roman Catholic, 23 Jews.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the village became part of the newly formed Czechoslovakia. Due to the Czechoslovak-Polish border conflicts in the Arwa area, the place was assigned to the Second Polish Republic in 1920. Between 1920 and 1925 he belonged to the powiat Spisko-Orawski , from July 1, 1925 to the powiat Nowotarski. In 1921 the community had 319 houses with 1280 inhabitants, of which 1275 Poles, 1 Ruthene, 4 other nationalities (mostly Slovaks), 1262 Roman Catholic, 1 Greek Catholic, 17 Israelite.

From 1939 to 1945 the village became part of the Slovak State .

From 1975 to 1998, Zubrzyca Górna was part of the Nowy Sącz Voivodeship .
