The paper addresses the issue of the origins of the town of Poznań founded in mid-13th century under German law. The birth of the charter town on the left bank of the Warta river is illustrated first and foremost by sources: documents from the mid-13th century, particularly a location charter of 1253, and narrative sources, e.g. The Wielkopolska Chronicle and yearly records written in Wielkopolska. The town was the work of Przemysł I, the duke of Wielkopolska, who sorted out property issues on the left bank of the Warta, made grants and granted privileges, erected his new castle next to the new town, and together with his brother Bolesław issued a location charter in 1253. The duke’s action resulted in the rise of one of the most important urban centers in medieval Poland.

A Forgotten Town, the Village and Manor Zwanowo. Contribution to the Studies into Late Mediaeval and Modern Settlement Complex in Niedźwiedziny (Hamlet Dzwonowo), Administrative District Wągrowiec, Great Poland. The article presents a preliminary interpretation of vegetation dissimilarities recognized due to the analysis of an orthophotomap published on the Internet site www.geoportal.gov.pl. The dissimilarities in question, visible in the grounds of the village of Niedźwiedziny (hamlet Dzwonowo), administrative district Wągrowiec, Great Poland (Wielkopolska), have been construed as the remains of a unique mediaeval settlement complex: oval-shaped village, chartered town and a mediaeval (?) and modern manor. During visits to the abovementioned sites, the area of the old churchyard cemetery was traced. On the basis of the written sources, it has been established that Dzwonowo was the main centre of the joint properties owned by Dobrogost – Poznań voivode, and subsequently his descendants.
