The History of the “True Kłodzko County”

How did the Kłodzko County come to be, and what made it unique? The history of this region is rich in many threads.

On Friday, November 20, at 5:00 p.m., the Museum of Papermaking invites you to a lecture by Andrzej Sobczyński, combined with a book launch for his work The History of the “True Kłodzko County”: On the Origins, Development, and Decline of Kłodzko’s Autonomy, which will be available for purchase during the event.

Participants will have the opportunity to explore the county’s origins, the development of its autonomy, and the circumstances that led to its decline. This is an opportunity to examine the Kłodzko region through the lens of its historic laws, privileges, and political distinctiveness—themes around which the author has structured his book.

Andrzej Sobczyński, a retired colonel in the Polish Army, is a Sudeten guide and an enthusiast of the region’s history; he is the author of, among other works, the monograph Lewin Kłodzki in the History of Three Cultures. Readers of the Yearbook of the Museum of Papermaking may also know him from his study on the history of the Homol estate and the former town of Duszniki.

The museum invites local history enthusiasts and anyone interested in learning more about the past of the Kłodzko region. Let’s spend Friday afternoon immersed in history with a good book!
