The village initially belonged to the Ruthenian Voivodeship of the aristocratic republic of Poland-Lithuania . During the first partition of Poland in 1772 the village became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).
In 1785 in the course of the Josephine colonization , German colonists of the Lutheran denomination were settled on the grounds of the village. The village was divided into two parishes: Burczyce Stare ( old , today's Birtschyzi) and Burczyce Nowe (the colony, today's Nowi Birtschyzi ).
