about Glogow

Głogów (former German name Glogau) is a town in south-western Poland with 74,200 inhabitants (1995). It is situated in the Lower Silesian Voivodship (as of 1999), and was previously in the Legnica Voivodship (1975-1998).

Glogow history

The first known historic record of Głogów was in 1010 in Thietmar's chronicles, when it was invaded by Germans under the rule of Holy Roman Emperor Henry II, and was once again besieged by German armies on August 9, 1017. On August 14, 1109 the battle of Głogów is held, against the army of emperor Henry V. In 1157 the town was taken by Frederick I Barbarossa, and burnt down its citizens.

In 1180, under the rule of Konrad, the son of Ladislaus the Exile, the rebuilt Głogów became a capital of the principality, and in 1253 it was given Magdeburg city rights.
