    Wilamowice
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilamowice
    According to historians, after the desolation of Polish lands by the Mongol invasion in 1241, the then Silesian Piast rulers of the Duchy of Opole and Racibórz decided to bring settlers from the West to the deserted and destroyed lands around the Silesian Foothills, to revive agriculture, industry and trade.[2] The area was settled in the course of the German eastward colonization of Slavic lands. In this way, around 1250, a group of colonists from the area of former Flanders came to the region, specifically from Friesland, near Bruges and established the settlement Wilamowice.[2]
    The name derives from the name Willem.

    The town was founded by settlers imported from Holland by the Teutonic Order in the late 13th century — hence its original name, Preußisch Holland, meaning Prussian Holland. It is the oldest Dutch settlement in present day Poland. It is located in the Prussian historical region of Pogesania.
