Polanka Wielka Commune

Highlight • Settlement

The village was first mentioned in the census of the parish of the Zator deanery of the Krakow diocese from 1326 under the name Polenka. Probably at the end of the fourteenth century, a sister village was established, Polanka Górna, called Polanka Nowa, while the older Polanka was called Polanka Stara (Lower).
Politically, the village was then within the borders of the Duchy of Oświęcim, established in 1315, and from 1327 constituting a fief of the Kingdom of Bohemia. In 1457 it was bought by the Polish king Kazimierz Jagiellończyk, and in the accompanying sales document issued by John IV of Oświęcim on February 21, 1457 both Polanka Antiqua and Nowa Polanka were mentioned [5]. In 1564, the principality was finally incorporated into the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland.

Zator Castle

Highlight • Castle

The history of Zator Castle dates back to the mid-15th century, when the Duchy of Zator was established and construction began on its seat. In later years, the building was rebuilt numerous times, including in the neo-Gothic style in the 19th century. It was destroyed (e.g., during the Swedish Deluge) and changed owners, from the Piast and Potocki dynasty to the Institute of Zootechnics. After wartime destruction and nationalization, the castle underwent renovations, and currently, revitalization work is underway to restore it to its new function.
The Original Castle and the Development of the Duchy
Construction of the Castle (circa 1455): Construction began around 1455, when the Duchy of Zator was established following the division of the Duchy of Oświęcim. Wenceslaus became the first duke, obliging his subjects to work on the construction of the residence.
Defensive Character: The original castle had defensive features and served as the seat of the Piast Dukes of Zator. Incorporation into Poland (1564): The Duchy of Zator, along with the fortress, was incorporated into the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland. At that time, the castle belonged to the Dunin and Potocki families, among others.
