Market Square in Żory
Highlight • Settlement
The name of the village of Żory appeared for the first time in 1258. On February 24, 1272, Władysław, the Duke of Opole and Racibórz, signed an agreement containing a decision on the transfer of the village to his authority and on the location of the city (under Magdeburg law). It had the oval shape, which is valid until today, with a rectangular market square, two gates (one in Kraków and one in Cieszyn) and walls. Probably already in 1292, the prince of Racibórz, Przemysław, became a supporter of the Czech king, but it is assumed that the fief period begins in 1327. In 1336 the principality passed into the hands of the Přemyslids. In the years 1345, 1433 and 1473 Żory was besieged by Polish, Hussite and Hungarian troops, respectively. In the years 1521–1532, the principality was for the last time ruled by the rulers of the Silesian Piasts, who were followers of the Czech crown, and then the Hohenzollerns took power for 20 years.
