Chwałęcice

Chwałęcice (German: Chwallentzitz) is a district of Rybnik, Silesian Voivodeship, southern Poland.

After World War I in the Upper Silesia plebiscite, 233 out of 274 voters in Chwałęcice voted in favour of joining Poland, against 41 opting for staying in Germany.

It was then annexed by Nazi Germany at the beginning of World War II.

In the years 1973–1977, it was the seat of a gmina, which (Chwałęcice and Stodoły) was amalgamated with Rybnik on February 1, 1977.
