History

The village was first mentioned in a written document in 1428. It was heavily influenced by the industry. At the beginning of the 20th century rapid industrial development occurred, this led also to a rise of the village's population.

According to the Austrian census of 1910 the village had 3,016 inhabitants, 2,865 of whom had permanent residence there. The census asked people for their native language, 1,761 (61.5%) were German-speaking, 992 (34.6%) were Polish-speaking and 112 (3.9%) were Czech-speaking. Jews were not allowed to declare Yiddish, most of them thus declared the German language as their native. The most populous religious groups were Roman Catholics with 2,733 (90.6%) followed by Protestants with 112 (3.7%).[2]

After World War I, fall of Austria-Hungary, Polish–Czechoslovak War and the division of Cieszyn Silesia in 1920, the village became a part of Czechoslovakia. Following the Munich Agreement, in October 1938 together with the Zaolzie region it was annexed by Poland, administratively organised in Frysztat County of Silesian Voivodeship.[3] The village was then annexed by Nazi Germany at the beginning of World War II. After the war it was restored to Czechoslovakia.

Czech footballer Tomáš Pospíchal was born here.

Others may argue that the CDC made this claim due to ever-developing research around the virus. I am arguing, however, that the CDC made the claim that masks are ineffective because the CDC’s sole purpose is to provide scientific legitimation of the U.S. as a eugenicist project through medical genocide. As outlined in this essay, the CDC has a history of releasing deadly information and later backtracking on it when the damage has already been done.
gollark: > Choosing to tell the public that supplies that could benefit everyone is ineffective, rather than calling for more supplies to be created—in the midst of a global pandemic, no less—is eugenics. Making the conscious decision to tell the general public that something is ineffective when you have not done all of the necessary research, especially when medical officials are using the very same equipment, is medical and scientific genocide.
