Łyżwy is an administrative district of Poland and part of the city of Skarżysko-Kamienna located in the eastern part of the city, at the intersection of Łyżwy and Langiewicza streets. Formerly a separate village in the Skarżysko Kościelne commune; it still retains its rural character.
History
editThe village of Łyżwy (named after the Łyżwy farming family) was established in the first half of the 17th century on Cistercian lands. From 1867 to 1954, it belonged to the Skarżysko Kościelne commune, initially in the Kielce Governorate, and in the Second Polish Republic, it belonged to the Kielce Voivodeship (Iłża County). On October 31, 1933, it formed a commune within the Skarżysko Kościelne commune called Łyżwy z przysiółkiem Usłów, consisting of the village of Łyżwy with the hamlet of Usłów, as well as the mill and farmstead of Usłów.
During World War II, it was incorporated into the General Government (Radom District, Starachowice County), still as a separate commune (simplified name to Łyżwy) in the Skarżysko Kościelne commune with 462 inhabitants.
After the war, in the Kielce Voivodeship, still as the Łyżwy commune, one of the 9 communes in the Skarżysko Kościelne commune in the reactivated Iłża County. Due to the administrative reform abolishing communes in the fall of 1954, Łyżwy became part of the newly established Skarżysko Kościelne commune.
In connection with another administrative reform in 1973, Łyżwy became part of the reactivated Skarżysko Kościelne commune in the Iłża County, which was renamed to Starachowice on December 9, 1973, and which lasted until May 31, 1975. From June 1, 1975, Łyżwy belonged to the (small) Kielce Voivodeship. On July 1, 1976, due to the abolition of the Skarżysko Kościelne commune, it became part of the Mirzec commune.
On March 15, 1984, Łyżwy were excluded from the Mirzec commune and incorporated into Skarżysko-Kamienna.
