Pszenno

Pszenno is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Świdnica, within Świdnica County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in south-western Poland.

It is located approximately east of Świdnica, and south-west of the regional capital Wrocław.

In 1243 the village was established in Lower Silesia with German Law under Johann Graf von Wuerben.

Since 1645, the Evangelical inhabitants of the town belonged to the Friedenskirche ( Churches of Peace, ) in nearby Schweidnitz and since 1741 to the (county) Landkreis Schweidnitz. Until 1773 the Catholics belonged to the Jesuit Church of Schweidnitz.

In 1874 the Weizenrodau Standesamtregister (civil registrary) was established.

The German name Weizenrodau literally means wheat uprooting. The ancestors of the Watzenrode family of Prussia based their family name on the village since this is where they originated.

A sugar factory was established at Weizenrodau early in the 19th century.

After 1945 Weizenrodau was renamed to Pszenno.
