'''Czaniec''' {{IPAc-pl|'|cz|a|ń|e1|c}} is a [[village]] in the administrative district of [[Gmina Porąbka]], within [[Bielsko County]], [[Silesian Voivodeship]], in southern Poland.{{TERYT}} It lies approximately {{convert|5|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} north-east of [[Porąbka, Silesian Voivodeship|Porąbka]], {{convert|14|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} east of [[Bielsko-Biała]], and {{convert|48|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} south of the regional capital [[Katowice]].<br />
<br />
[[John Paul II]]'s genealogy hails from here.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The village could have existed in the 13th century.<br />
<br />
Later it belonged to the [[Duchy of Oświęcim]], formed in 1315 in the process of [[History of Poland#Fragmentation|feudal fragmentation of Poland]] and was ruled by a local branch of [[Piast dynasty]]. In 1327 the duchy became a [[Fee (feudal tenure)|fee]] of the [[Kingdom of Bohemia]]. In 1457 [[Jan IV of Oświęcim]] agreed to sell the duchy to the [[Crown of the Kingdom of Poland|Polish Crown]], and in the accompanying document issued on 21 February the village was mentioned as ''Czanyecz''.<ref>{{cite book |first=Krzysztof Rafał |last=Prokop |title=Księstwa oświęcimskie i zatorskie wobec Korony Polskiej w latach 1438-1513.

<br />
The territory of the Duchy of Oświęcim was eventually incorporated into Poland in 1564 and formed [[Silesian County]] of [[Kraków Voivodeship (14th century – 1795)|Kraków Voivodeship]]. Upon the [[First Partition of Poland]] in 1772 it became part of the [[Habsburg monarchy|Austrian]] Kingdom of [[Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria|Galicia]]. After [[World War I]] and fall of [[Austria-Hungary]] it became part of [[Second Polish Republic|Poland]]. It was annexed by [[Nazi Germany]] at the beginning of [[World War II]], and afterwards it was restored to Poland.<br />
