history

The place was first mentioned in 1375 when it was assigned to the Chleb Dworskowicz by Wladislaus II of Opole . The village was one of the few and at the same time one of the largest ethnically Polish and Roman Catholic villages in the area. In the late 18th century it had over 1200 inhabitants.

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 1900 the community had 462 houses with 2405 inhabitants, of which 2396 were Polish-speaking, 9 Ruthenian-speaking, 2262 Roman Catholic, 112 Greek Catholic, 31 Jews.

After the end of the Polish-Ukrainian War in 1919, Biskowytschi came to Poland. In 1921 the community had 489 houses with 2568 inhabitants, 2510 Poles, 27 Ruthenians, 31 Jews (nationality), 2473 Roman Catholic, 57 Greek Catholic, 27 Jews (religion). In 1938 the Roman Catholic parish Biskowice in the dean's office Sambor in the diocese of Przemyśl comprised 2810 parishioners.

During the Second World War it belonged first to the Soviet Union and from 1941 to the General Government , from 1945 back to the Soviet Union, now part of the Ukraine . Most Poles were resettled in the years 1956-1958 in exchange for Ukrainians from the Ustrzyki Dolne area .
