history
The place was first mentioned in 1155 as juxta Borech . Other names were Boreck, Borck, Bork, Borek, Borkum, Grossburg and Großburg.
In 1232 at the latest, Duke Heinrich the Bearded gave the place with other places Krentsch, Schweinbraten, Klein Lauden and Ottwitz to the Bishop of Lebus . This property was sold in 1552 by the last Catholic Bishop of Lubusz, Johann von Horneburg, to the captain of Sommerfeld (Lubsko) Gottfried von Kanitz on Porschwitz (Parszowice) and lent as a fiefdom. The loan letter was not issued until March 28, 1553, after approval by the Lubusz Cathedral Chapter in Fürstenwalde . The bishop and cathedral chapter retained the suzerainty, which passed to the Electors of Brandenburg after the secularization of the diocese. This created the peculiarity that Großburg was not part of the Habsburg property in Silesia , but an exclave of the Margraviate of Brandenburg . After Silesia became Prussian in 1742 , the Großburg exclave was incorporated.
In 1910 Großburg received a railway connection . Before the Second World War , 834 inhabitants ( 1939 ) lived in the village. Between 1818 and 1945 the district of Strehlen belonged to .
