Hermanice, Ustroń

Hermanice is a district of Ustroń, Silesian Voivodeship, Poland.

Politically the village belonged then to the Duchy of Teschen, a fee of the Kingdom of Bohemia, which after 1526 became part of the Habsburg monarchy.

In the 1870s, a housing estate was built here to accommodate 80 families of workers of a forge in a nearby Ustroń.

According to the censuses conducted in 1880, 1890, 1900 and 1910 the population of the municipality grew from 749 in 1880 to 917 in 1910, with a growing majority of the inhabitants being native Polish-speakers (85.5% in 1880 and 94.9% in 1910) and dwindling minority German-speaking (11.5% in 1880 and 5.1% in 1910) and Czech-speaking (22 or 3% in 1880 and zero since 1900), with a majority of Protestants (54.7% in 1910), followed by Roman Catholics (44.8% in 1910) and Jews (5 people).

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