==History==<br />
[[File:Bunkier atomowy.jpg|thumb|left|Nuclear bunker in Wiechlice]]<br />
The village was first mentioned in 1260 as ''Vechlic'', when it was part of [[Piast dynasty|Piast]]-ruled [[Kingdom of Poland (1025–1385)|Poland]]. In the 18th century it was annexed by [[Kingdom of Prussia|Prussia]]. During the [[Napoleonic Wars]] a temporary hospital for French troops was created in the local palace. From 1871 to 1945 the village also formed part of [[Germany]]. During [[World War I]], Germany operated a [[prisoner-of-war camp]] in the village, whose prisoners were the [[English people|English]], [[French people|French]], [[Belgians]], [[Italians]], [[Serbs]], [[Romanians]] and [[Russians]]. In 1918–1919, [[Polish people|Polish]] insurgents of the [[Greater Poland uprising (1918–19)|Greater Poland uprising]] were imprisoned at the camp.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://powstaniewielkopolskie.pl/nowa/?p=944|title=Odsłonięcie obelisku w Szprotawie – Wiechlicach|website=Towarzystwo Pamięci Powstania Wielkopolskiego 1918-1919|accessdate=4 December 2020|language=Polish}}</ref> There is a cemetery of the prisoners of war from World War I and a monument to imprisoned Polish insurgents at the site. After the defeat of [[Nazi Germany]] in [[World War II]] in 1945, the village became again part of Poland. A nuclear bunker was built in the 1960s.<br />
