of Pobiedziska
Kazimierz Odnowiciel - the founder of PObiedziska
According to the old Silesian Chronicle which was written in XIII century , Kazimierz Odnowiciel came back to country , destroyed heavily by Brzetysław ‘s the Czech prince Attacks and Pagan Anarchy and stayed on Lednogóra Island.
Brzetysław , the Czech prince
Because Giecz, PoznaŃ and Gniezno were very destryed, Kazimierz Odnowiciel (Casimir The Restorer) used the location of Lednogóra Island. On the Island and in the near cities created branches of knightood, warriors and armed people in order to attack Masław who occupied more and more of Great Poland (Wielkopolska).
MasŁaw
While staying od the island, he often prayed in a prince chapel. He asked God and the Church patroness – Mother of God for a victory over MasŁaw and finishing the war. He gave to God his sword and diadem as a gift. Then, extremely tired, fell asleep.
While sleeping he dreamt and heard a voice:” Take this crucifix and the sword, your branches of knighthood, warriors and people and go to fight with MasLaw at night.”
Waiting for the attack Masław’s warriors gave a huge party:they were eating, singing and dancing and drank a lot of wine…
At midnight they went to beds and soon fell asleep as they didn’t expect the attack.
The dwellers of this village showed his prince the place where masŁaw stayed – not far from KociaŁkowa Górka.
When it started to dawn, the branches of knighthood and warriors of Kazimierz odnowiciel came to the camp. Because MasŁaw’s warriors slept hard and didn’t expect the attack, they started to escape in panic . onlySome of them were fighting.
There were killed and wounded on both sides but when prince kazimierz Odnowiciel came with a crucifix in his hand his branches of warriors started to win.
MasŁaw warriors started to escape and while doing this they ignited fire .
The victory in Kociałkowa Górka started the period of predominance of kazimierz odnowiciel over masŁaw .The year after the victory Kazimierz odnowiciel called the place which dwellers helped him to find MasŁaw’s warriors - the name of the city – Pobieda (in Russian language – Victory ).
