This article discusses attempts at founding a university in Silesia in the 16th and 17th centuries, including at Breslau (Wrocław, Poland), Liegnitz (Legnica, Poland), and Beuthen an der Oder (Bytom Odrzański, Poland). The author provides information surrounding each of these projects, including the political, religious, and financial dimensions of their ultimate failure, as well as on the founders, including Bohemian king Wladislaw Jagiello, Duke Friedrich II of Liegnitz, and Silesian aristocrat Georg von Schönaich.
