history

Since 1257 the village of Biczyce belonged to Kinga of Poland and from about 1280 to the Poor Clares in Stary Sącz .

After the first partition of Poland , Biczyce came to the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

In 1788, as part of the Josephine colonization, German colonists of the Lutheran denomination were settled. The village was divided into two parts: Biczyce Polskie / Polish Bischitz (today Biczyce Górne ) and Biczyce Niemieckie / German Bischitz (today Biczyce Górne ). The Protestants belonged to the community in Nowy Sącz. By the end of the 19th century, the descendants of the colonists were partly Polonized. In 1900 the village of Biczyce Polskie had 462 inhabitants in 77 houses, 446 of them Polish-speaking, 16 German-speaking, 428 Roman Catholic, 9 Jews and 25 other faiths (predominantly Protestant).

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

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