history

Marian column

The place was first mentioned in 1291 as Swandorf . In the work Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from the years 1295-1305, the place is mentioned as Swanowitz .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Schwandorf and most of Silesia fell to Prussia .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community Schwandorf belonged to the district of Neisse in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 there were 28 houses in the village. In the same year, 194 people lived in Schwandorf, all of them Catholic. In 1855, 217 people lived in Schwandorf. In 1865 there were 17 gardeners and seven cottagers in the village. The residents of Kalkau were trained and parish. In 1874 the Kalkau district was founded, which consisted of the rural communities of Baucke, Brünschwitz, Kalkau, Peterwitz, Schwandorf and Würben and the manor districts of Baucke, Kalkau, Peterwitz, Schwandorf and Würben. In 1885 Schwandorf had 137 inhabitants.

In 1933 there were 219 people in Schwandorf and 180 in 1939. Until the end of the war in 1945 the place belonged to the Neisse district .

As a result of the Second World War, Schwandorf came under Polish administration in 1945, like most of Silesia . It was subsequently renamed Zwanowice and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. The German population was largely expelled . In 1950 it was incorporated into the Opole Voivodeship. In 1999 the place came to the re-established Powiat Nyski . In 2007 110 people lived in the village.
