Abstract
This publication reveals in print the content of the founding charter of 1508 concerning the establishment of the provostship and mansionary residence in Książnice Wielkie, a village near Koszyce, in the former Proszowice poviat district. Due to its detailed, even meticulous nature, the document made an important contribution to the organisation of the above Church institutions. The Tyniec monastery was the formal founder of the provostship in Książnice Wielkie, whereas Mikołaj of Koprzywnica (aka Mikołaj of Szadek) acted as the initiator and its actual founder. Until 1809, the provostship survived in the form in which had been established back in 1508.
