JAGERNDORF (Czech, Krnov)

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 125 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: INV-JED
JAGERNDORF (Czech, Krnov) , a town of
Austria
 , in Silesia, 18 m. N.W. of Troppau by
rail
 . Pop. (1900), 14,675, mostly German. It is situated on the Oppa and possesses a chateau belonging to Prince Liechtenstein, who holds extensive estates in the
district
 . Jagerndorf has large manufactories of
cloth
 , woollens, linen and machines, and carries on an active
trade
 . On the neighbouring hill of Burgberg (1420 ft.) are a
church
 , much visited as a place of
pilgrimage
 , and the ruins of the seat of the former princes of Jagerndorf. The claim of
Prussia
  to the principality of Jagerndorf was the occasion of the first Silesian war (1740-1742), but in the
partition
 , which followed,
Austria
  retained the larger portion of it. Jagerndorf suffered severely during the Thirty Years' War, and was the
scene
  of engagements between the Prussians and Austrians in May 1745 and in January 1779.
