Bolesław I of Cieszyn (Polish:Bolesław I cieszyński, Czech:Boleslav I. Těšínský, German:Boleslaus I. von Teschen) (c.1363– 6 May 1431) was a Duke of half of Bytom and Siewierz from 1405, Duke of Cieszyn and half of both Głogów and Ścinawa from 1410, and Duke of Toszek and Strzelin during 1410–1414.
In 1405 Bolesław's father entrusted him with direct rule over Bytom and Siewierz and the government of the Duchy of Cieszyn. A year later (1406), the murder of his brother Przemysław originated a break in relations between Bolesław and his father. Shortly after, Bolesław married Margareta, the sister of John II the Iron, Duke of Racibórz, who was the instigator of Przemysław's death. According to Jan Długosz, his father, Duke Przemysław I Noszak strongly opposed this union, and even threatened to disinherit Bolesław if he maintained contact with the Přemyslid Dukes of Opava and Racibórz. The early death of Margareta shortly after the wedding contributed to the reconciliation between Bolesław and his father, which was formally signed on 7 September 1407.
In 1920 Cieszyn Silesia was divided between the two newly created states of Poland and Czechoslovakia, with the smaller western suburbs of Teschen becoming part of Czechoslovakia as a new town called Český Těšín. The larger part of the town joined Poland as Cieszyn. Three bridges connect the twin towns. After Poland and the Czech Republic joined the European Union and its passport-free Schengen zone, border controls were abolished and residents of both the Polish and Czech part could move freely across the border. Both Polish and Czech part of the city have 61,201 inhabitants. Cieszyn is the southern terminus of the Polish National road 1 leading to Gdańsk on the Baltic coast.

Teschen Gestapo building, Český Těšín
From 1939 - 1945 the building shown in this film served as the HQ for the Gestapo in Teschen. It was originally built in the nineteenth century and between the wars was a Czech language grammar school. The building is today located in Český Těšín in the Masaryk Gardens (Masarykový sady) very close to the border bridge in the centre of town.
One of the prisoners held here was Archduke Karl Albrecht of Austria who came from a German speaking landowning family and who chose to remain in Poland after WW1. After the Nazi occupation in 1939 he refused to sign the Volkliste and was imprisoned and tortured by the Gestapo. After the war, he had to flee once more, this time from the Communists and died in Sweden in 1951.

Europe 1807-1809: The Failure of Tilsit
In 1807, the Treaties of Tilsit were signed, and Napoleon's dominion over Europe seemed secure. With Britain isolated, and the three great powers of Prussia, Austria and Russia cowed, the French Empire had reached a new pinnacle of power.
Over the next two years, the system established at Tilsit comprehensively failed. Napoleon's ambitions in the Iberian Peninsula led to the start of a war that was to cost his empire dearly. His alliance with the Russian Tsar, Alexander, began to falter. And Austria looked to challenged French expansionism for one final time.

He was also the younger brother of Francis II, Holy Roman Emperor.
Despite being epileptic, Charles achieved respect both as a commander and as a reformer of the Austrian army.
He was considered one of Napoleon's more formidable opponents and one of the greatest generals of the French Revolutionary Wars.
He began his career fighting the revolutionary armies of France.
Early in the wars of the First Coalition, he saw victory at Neerwinden in 1793, before being defeated at Wattignies 1793 and Fleurus 1794.
In 1796, as chief of all Austrian forces on the Rhine, Charles defeated Jean-Baptiste Jourdan at Amberg and Würzburg, and then won a victory at Emmendingen that forced Jean Victor Marie Moreau to withdraw across the Rhine.
He also defeated opponents at Zürich, Ostrach, Stockach, and Messkirch in 1799.
He reformed Austria's armies to adopt the nation-at-arms principle.
In 1809, he entered the War of the Fifth Coalition and inflicted Napoleon's first major setback at Aspern-Essling, before suffering a defeat at the bloody Battle of Wagram.
After Wagram, Charles saw no more significant action in the Napoleonic Wars.
As a military strategist, Charles was able to successfully execute complex and risky maneuvers of troops.
However, his contemporary Carl von Clausewitz criticized his rigidity and adherence to "geographic" strategy.

From 1939 - 1945 the building shown in this film served as the HQ for the Gestapo in Teschen. It was originally built in the nineteenth century and between the wars was a Czech language grammar school.

We can see the plaque on the wall which reminds people of its use by the Gestapo. The plaque was affixed to the wall in 1970 on the 25th anniversary of the building changing hands from the Nazis to the Communists.

In 1807, the Treaties of Tilsit were signed, and Napoleon's dominion over Europe seemed secure. With Britain isolated, and the three great powers of Prussia, Austria and Russia cowed, the French Empire had reached a new pinnacle of power.
Over the next two years, the system established at Tilsit comprehensively failed. Napoleon's ambitions in the Iberian Peninsula led to the start of a war that was to cost his empire dearly. His alliance with the Russian Tsar, Alexander, began to falter. And Austria looked to challenged French expansionism for one final time.

Hey guys, today we are celebrating six historical royal births. Let's celebrate with two Kings that became a National Heroes, a Duke that crowned himself King, a soldier Duke, an unfaithful Queen and a lucky Prince
Bolesław I of Cieszyn (Polish:Bolesław I cieszyński, Czech:Boleslav I. Těšínský, German:Boleslaus I. von Teschen) (c.1363– 6 May 1431) was a Duke of half of Bytom and Siewierz from 1405, Duke of Cieszyn and half of both Głogów and Ścinawa from 1410, and Duke of Toszek and Strzelin during 1410–1414.
In 1405 Bolesław's father entrusted him with direct rule over Bytom and Siewierz and the government of the Duchy of Cieszyn. A year later (1406), the murder of his brother Przemysław originated a break in relations between Bolesław and his father. Shortly after, Bolesław married Margareta, the sister of John II the Iron, Duke of Racibórz, who was the instigator of Przemysław's death. According to Jan Długosz, his father, Duke Przemysław I Noszak strongly opposed this union, and even threatened to disinherit Bolesław if he maintained contact with the Přemyslid Dukes of Opava and Racibórz. The early death of Margareta shortly after the wedding contributed to the reconciliation between Bolesław and his father, which was formally signed on 7 September 1407.
