History
Kleczew received town rights in 1366. It was a private town administratively located in the Konin County in the Kalisz Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland.[1] A route connecting Warsaw and Poznań with Dresden ran through the town in the 18th century and King Augustus III of Poland often traveled that route.[2]
Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the town was occupied by Germany until 1945. A local Polish teacher was among the victims of a massacre of Poles, committed by the Germans in Konin on 10 November 1939 as part of the Intelligenzaktion.[3] The Polish resistance movement was active in Kleczew. Polish underground press was distributed in the town.[4]
