history
The village is located in Upper Silesia , a reminder of the spin-off of the area around Pszczyna from Lesser Poland before 1177/1179 was the fact that the local parish belonged to the diocese of Krakow (in the dean's office in Auschwitz , then in the dean's office in Pless) until the time of the Reformation .
The place was first mentioned as the parish of Breze in 1326, when the priest Conradus was excommunicated for not paying the tax. After that the place was named Brzescze , Bresco (1346), Brescze (1444), z Brzezczuow (1529), Brzesczye (1529), Brzest (1743), Brzestz (1783, 1845), Brześć, Brzest (1896), Brzeźce (1952 ) mentioned. The original name was Brzeście or Brzeszcze derived from the original Slavonic * berstьje ([forest of] mountain elms, Polish [las] brzostowy) and was secondarily Germanized as Brzestz . The later Polish form Brzeźce , Brzeżce referred to the word brzeg (shore).
Politically, the village belonged to the Duchy of Ratibor in the time of Polish particularism . Since 1327 consisted suzerainty of the Kingdom of Bohemia and since 1526 it belonged to the Habsburg monarchy .
On February 21, 1517, the free class rule Pless and wes Brzezcze were sold by Casimir II of Teschen .
After the First Silesian War and the preliminary peace of Breslau (1742) it belonged to the Kingdom of Prussia , from 1871 to Germany .

After the Polish annexation of Eastern Upper Silesia in 1922, Brzeźce belonged to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II , when the Polish Army resisted the Wehrmacht on September 1st in the Battle of Pless. The church tower was then destroyed.
From 1975 to 1998 Brzeźce was part of the Katowice Voivodeship .
