==History==
[[File:2012-04 Głogówek 01.jpg|thumb|left|220px|A distant view of the town from the surrounding fields]]
ItPreviously, isit oftenwas saidbelieved that the first historical mention of Głogówek was in the year 1076, buthowever this is now known to be false. The Russian sources which frequently quoted citingcited the city's 11th-century founding were misinterpreted, referringand referred instead to athe [[Lower Silesia]]n town, of [[Głogów]], with a very similar name. This village, first mentioned in 1010, was located some distance from Głogówek and later became a fortified castle by the [[Oder]] and a major city. However, givenGiven the ages of the Russiansome texts, a mistake in identifying the first historical mentions of the two villagessettlements is understandable. At the time, military conflict in the region was common, and the use of the Głogów fortress may very well have inspired the names of smaller villages in the surrounding area, causing the confusion.
 
The first unequivocal historical mention of Głogówek in a Silesian source dates from 1212. This source is a list of villages which were in the [[tithe|tithing]] area of the [[Leubus Cloister]]. The village was referred to as "Glogov" in the [[Latin]] text, which describes, in some detail, the boundaries of the village. This description could only apply to the present-day village, and is considered to be the first unambiguous mention of Głogówek. It was part of the [[Duchy of Opole]] of fragmented [[Piast dynasty|Piast]]-ruled [[Kingdom of Poland (1025–1385)|Poland]]. [[Town privileges]] were granted to Głogówek by local dukes in 1275. Another error in Silesian record-keeping states that Głogówek, still a fairly small town, had 12 official representatives, a number much too large for a city of that size. [[Wrocław]], athe muchlargest largercity in citythe province nowadays, had only five at the time. The city was later granted German town privileges as well.
 
In 1327, Głogówek fell under [[Kingdom of Bohemia|Bohemian]] suzerainty, however, it remained under the rule of local Polish dukes of the Piast dynasty until 1532. The town's city rights were renewed again in 1373, this time under the [[Magdeburg rights]] provision. In 1379, a [[Church (building)|church]], [[Saint Bartholomew]]'s, was built. Only a few years later, the [[duke]] [[Vladislaus II of Opole]] (+1401), built another large cloister in [[Mochów]], associated with [[Częstochowa]] in the area. From 1420 to 1460 Głogówek was the capital of the [[Duchy of Głogówek and Prudnik]], which in 1460 was reintegrated with the Duchy of Opole.

After the [[First Silesian War]] in the mid-18th century Głogówek, under the Germanized name ''Oberglogau'', came under [[Kingdom of Prussia|Prussian]] control. The town was, for the most part, destroyed in a large fire in 1765. In addition, [[Ludwig van Beethoven]] came to stay in the castle, using it to finish his fourth symphony. From 1871 to 1945 the town was part of Germany. It was connected to the [[railroad]] network in 1876 when its population, which was almost completely [[bilingual]], stood at 6,000, and by 1880 the population had decreased to 5,000. The population stood at 7,500 at the outbreak of [[World War II]], which destroyed 40% of the city.

After the war, the town was placed under [[Provisional Government of National Unity|Polish administration]] in accordance with the [[Potsdam Agreement]] (pending a final peace conference which eventually never took place) and renamed to Głogówek. Contrary to most other towns in [[Silesia]], not the entire German population [[Flight and expulsion of Germans (1944–1950)|was expelled]]. For this reason, a [[German minority in Poland|German minority]] has remained in the town. Since 2009, the town has been officially bilingual in Polish and German.
