The place is located in the Beskids Island on the right bank of the Łososina River . The neighboring towns are Ujanowice and Kobyłczyna in the west, Sechna in the north, Łososina Dolna in the northeast, Wronowice in the southeast, and Stańkowa in the south.

history

Since 1328 the village belonged to the Poor Clares in Stary Sącz (Alt Sandez). Jan Długosz described the village in a book from 1470 to 1480 as Zdbykowycze, villa sub parochia ecclesiae de Jakubkowycze sita . The patronymic name is derived from the personal name Sdbyk ( e.g. mentioned in 1405 as Sdbik ).

There was a Vorwerk there in the 17th century .

After the First Partition of Poland, Żbikowice became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

In 1783, in the course of the Josephine colonization, 11 German families of colonists of Lutheran and Reformed denominations were settled. In 1869 the Lutheran branch parish Strzeszyce -Żbikowice from Nowy Sącz (New Sandez) was established with the seat in the Protestant elementary school in Strzeszyce. By the end of the 19th century, most of the colonists' descendants were Polonized. In 1900 the village had 295 inhabitants in 48 houses, 287 of them Polish-speaking, 4 German-speaking, 238 Roman Catholic, 12 Jews, 45 of other faiths (predominantly Protestant).

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Żbikowice came to Poland. This was interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II , during which it was part of the Krakow district in the Generalgouvernement .

From 1975 to 1998 Żbikowice was part of the Nowy Sącz Voivodeship .
