Excerpt: Moszna (German: ) is a small village in south-west Poland, approximately 30 km (19 mi) from Opole, known for its notable castle. In 1309 the area, which is nowadays occupied by Moszna, was settled by a family called Mosce or Moschin. In 1679 the village belonged to the family of von Skalls and it became the property of Wilhelm von Reisewitz around 1723. Later on, Moszna belonged to Heinrich Leopold von Seherr-Toss (since 1771); Heinrich von Erdmansdorf (1853); and to Hubert Tiele-Winckler (since 1866). A horse breeding farm was founded in Moszna in 1946. It was based on a herd from a liquidated farm in D onie, near Rawicz. The farm in Moszna has kept thoroughbred horses from the very beginning and it expanded its husbandry with cross-breeds in 1961. The castle in Moszna is one of the best known monuments in the western part of Upper Silesia. Smolarnia, German Pechhutte is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Strzeleczki (Gemeinde Klein Strehlitz), within Krapkowice County, Opole Voivodeship, in Upper Silesia in south-western Poland. It lies approximately 7 kilometres (4 mi) west of Strzeleczki, 14 km (9 mi) west of Krapkowice, and 23 km (14 mi) south-west of the regional capital Opole. Before 1945 the area was part of Germany (see Territorial changes of Poland after World War II). Since 2006 the village, like the entire commune, has been bilingual in German and Polish. The village has a population of 252 inhabitants. The nearby hamlet of Serwitut (Servitut), with a population of 69 people, is administered as part of this village.

The village's name was first recorded as Dziedzutzer Pechhute, indicating it was a hamlet of Dziedzice (as was nearby Servitut). Its name derives from the pitch industry that occupied the villagers.
