The History

The history of Korzkiew village is strongly bonded with the history of Korzkiew's castle. Probably, the village was created as an ancillary settlement. In the 19th century Korzkiew was inhabitated mainlyby grooms courtiers, several peasents and bailiffs. The inn with brewery was also opened. In 1352 John the coat of arms Syrokomla bought the Korzkiew's hill, where he built a castle. It served as defensive and residential house of Zaklik family up to the second half of the 15th century. The next owners were: Szczepan Świętopełk from Irządz, merchant Piotr Krupka, the Zborowski and Ługowski family. In 1623 Aleksander Ługowski funded the construction of a baroque church of st. John the Baptist, which stands to these days. It was built in a place of the old wooden church, constructed in the second half of the 14th century.
