Origin/meaning

This used to be a small mining town founded in 1581 as Wilhelmsthal by Wilhelm von Oppersdorf (thus named after him and the 'W' in the arms). As the mineral resources were short, the town soon lost its development stimulus and was finally deprived of town rights in 1892.

As Wilhelmsthal was given to Poland in 1945, its name has been changed into Bolesławów.
