History & geography

History

In the 10th century Mieszko I of Poland of the Piast dynasty included these areas into newly formed Duchy of Poland. Two kings of Saxony died here: Albert in 1902 and Frederick Augustus III, in 1932. The palace in Sibyllenort was taken over by SS troops during World War II, who burned the palace in January 1945, In 1945, following Germany's defeat in the war, the village became again part of Poland per the Potsdam Agreement, although with a Soviet-installed communist regime, which stayed in power until the Fall of Communism in the 1980s. The palatial building was almost completely dismantled in 1957. Today there is only a ruin left in the size of a small villa. The preserved part of the palace was occupied by the communist security forces of the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of Poland. After the war, the village was repopulated with Poles displaced from the areas of Lwów and Nowogródek in former Eastern Poland annexed by the Soviet Union, small farmers from southern Poland, and Polish soldiers returning from Western Europe.
