Skarb groszy praskich z Leśnicy

The hoard of Prague groschen from Leśnica

Paweł Milejski

The hoard of Prague groschen from Leśnica (Strzelecki County, Opolskie Voivodeship) was incidentally discovered in 1977. The deposite consists of 310 Prague groschen – 65 of Charles IV and 245 of Wenceslas IV. All coins were struck in Kutná Hora mint. This hoard does not appear in numismatic literature, we only know two short mentions – first regarding the circumstances of the discovery and the second from the inventory of numismatic findings from 1156–1500 from Poland. In both of them coins were correctly identified as Prague groschen, however, none of the mentions gave the exact amount of groschen of individual issuers. Only now, more than half a century after the discovery of this find, it was possible to carefully develop it and assign all coins to specific rulers and to new typologies created by Czech researchers (Pinta 2015 and Hána 2003). The oldest coins from this deposit were minted during the time of Charles IV, in the years 1350–1358. The youngest coins, which set the terminus post quem of the hoard from Leśnica, were minted during the reign of Wenceslas IV in the years 1400–1405.

Wacław Gojniczek

The article focuses on circumstances of foundation of Provincial Court of Psczyna (Pless) Dominion. The founding act of the dominion owner, Baron Alexander Turzo of Bethlemfalva, actually legalised the existence of the court, in fact working since 1517. In 1521 the Baron complied with the request of the nobility of the dominion and issued a privilege, legalising the existence of the court since 1522. The court was supposed to be located at the chateau of Pszczyna. The brief founding document focused mainly on internal structure and remits of the court. Commented edition of the privilege is part of the article.

Oberamtsregierung in Opole and Brzeg – the Third Main Silesian Court, its Personnel and Operating Principles in 1744–1806

Małgorzata Konopnicka

In the second half of 1770s, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was gradually recovering after the political failure and industrial damage related to the Bar Confederation (1768–1772) and annexing almost 1/3 of the territory by the neighbouring superpowers (First Partition of Poland – 1772). From 1775, also military forces were being reconstructed. Their main task was border protection and ensuring home stability. However, they were definitely not numerous enough to complete that task successfully as they counted only 16 500 soldiers at that time. Despite that fact, in the years 1778–1779, the crown military forces had to face the threat related to the war over the Bavarian succession. The article presents the actions undertaken by Polish military forces consisting in double protection of the Prussian army marching through the Polish territory, sealing the borders with the Prussian and Austrian states to stop the influx of deserters from the armies of these countries and fighting illegal conscription. Moreover, the publication presents information conveyed to the king Stanisław II Augustus by the leaders of Nunits stationing in Greater Poland and western Lesser Poland, concerning the mobilization and marches of Prussian and Austrian armies and military actions undertaken at that time.

Národnostní problematika v okrese Bruntál mezi roky 1960 až 1989

Ethnic Issues in Bruntál District 1960 to 1989

Lubomír Hlavienka

After 1945, the ethnic composition of the Czech borderland changed radically and the place of the displaced Germans was replaced by a diverse mix of new settlers, including not only Czechs, but also Slovaks, Roma, Greeks, and re-emigrants from Volhynia, Romania and Yugoslavia. This highly heterogeneous group gradually became commonplace during the 1940s and 1950s, but a number of problems persisted. The article aims to clarify what the national composition of the district of Bruntál, formed in 1960 on the territory of the former districts of Bruntál, Krnov and Rýmařov, looked like, and what the attitude of the national committees towards individual minorities was. Attention is paid to four nationalities, which, in the defined region, belonged to the most numerous national minorities. They are, specifically, Slovaks, Germans, Roma and Greeks.
