In the referendum on March 20, 1921, eight eligible voters voted to remain with Germany and 113 for Poland. Nevertheless, Balzarowitz remained with the German Empire. In 1936 the place was renamed Schönwiese . Until 1945 the place was in the district of Groß Strehlitz .
In 1945 the previously German place came under Polish administration, was renamed Balcarzowice and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. In 1950 the place became part of the Opole Voivodeship and in 1999 the re-established Powiat Strzelecki .
On August 15, 2008, a hurricane that had previously struck Schironowitz hit the town and damaged several properties. Then he moved to Błotnica Strzelecka (Blottnitz).
In November 2008, the place was also given the official German place name Balzarowitz .
