History

The rural district of Baranowitz (Baranowice) is documented as being purchased in 1436 by the Silesian nobleman Nicholaus Szassowski von Szassow,[2] equally written as Saszowski von Saszow,[3] and his wife Catherina for 80 Mark, who purchased the rural district from the nobleman Mikundey von Jaikowitz.[2][4] Baranowitz remained a possession of the House of Saszowski estates until 1540 when it was sold on to the Osinski family, who in 1556 sold Baranowitz to Johann von Trach Brzezie in Alt-Gleiwitz.[4]

After World War I in the Upper Silesia plebiscite 176 out of 214 voters in Baranowice voted in favour of joining Poland, against 38 opting to remain in Germany.[5]
