Summary/Abstract: The villages of Dobrzechów, Wysoka Strzyżowska and Oparówka were the property of the Cistercian monastery in Koprzywnica since the Middle Ages. After the First Partition, these areas were taken over by the Austrian authorities as chamber estates. In 1789, as a result of the exchange, the villages became the property of Ignacy Skrzyński, and then of his son Franciszek Ksawery Skrzyński. In 1842, the daughter of the latter - Teofila Koźmianowa née Skrzyński - was installed as the owner of the village. As a result of her premature death in 1852, an economic inventory was prepared in favor of court inheritance proceedings, covering all farms and manor buildings, with a detailed description of the buildings located within them. The source is the only such detailed description of the villages in question preserved, and a significant part of the objects listed in it were destroyed in the 19th or early 20th century.
