Dobromierz

First mentioned as Vrideberch in a 1307 deed, it received town privileges about 1409. The area was the site of Frederick the Great's victory at the Battle of Hohenfriedberg (Hohenfriedeberg), fought between Austria and Prussia on 4 June 1745, during the War of the Austrian Succession.

It is the birthplace of Polish cyclist and Olympic medallist Stanisław Szozda.
