A former gord on the ancient Amber Road near the border of Bohemia with the Kingdom of Poland was already mentioned in 1086, later named Burgstädtel. From 1815 it was incorporated into the Prussian Silesia Province. After World War II, the German population was expelled and the village renamed. Until 1998 it was part of Wałbrzych Voivodeship.
