history
The place originally belonged to Roczyny . The name of the place is derived from the Polish name for birch forest .
During the first partition of Poland , Brzezinka came to the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire in 1772 (from 1804). From 1782 the village belonged to the Myslenice district (1819 with the seat in Wadowice ).
In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Brzezinka came to Poland. This was only interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II . It then belonged to the district of Bielitz in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ).
