"Historické území v Horní Lužici, puvodne soucást ceského státu. Roku 1377 udelil Karel IV. mesto Zhorelec s okolím jako vévodství svému nejmladšímu synovi Janu Zhoreleckému, který je držel až do roku 1396, kdy bylo Zhorelecko spojeno v celek s Lužicí. V roce 1635 postoupeno s Lužici jako ceské léno Sasku, 1815 pripojeno k Prusku. Po roce 1945 nekdejší Zhorelecko soucástí Polska a Nemecka."
