History
The area became part of the emerging Polish state in the 10th century. Following the fragmentation of Poland into smaller duchies, it formed part of the duchies of Silesia and Głogów, remaining under rule of the Polish houses of Piast and Jagiellon until 1506. It was first mentioned in the early 14th century under the Latinized name Saborin. The name is of Polish origin and comes from the words za and bór, meaning "behind a coniferous forest".[2][3]
It is known for the Baroque Zabór Castle built in 1677, formerly held by the noble house of Schoenaich-Carolath. Princess Hermine Reuss of Greiz (1887–1947), widow of German Emperor Wilhelm II (1859–1941), lived here from her husband's death until her flight in 1945.
In 1842, the village had a population of 470.[4]
In 1936, the Nazi government of Germany, renamed the village to Fürsteneich in attempt to erase traces of Polish origin. Following World War II, the village became again part of Poland, and its historic Polish name Zabór[2] was restored.
