history

Since 1467 the rule of Saybusch belonged to the aristocratic Komorowski family, who began a settlement campaign. The place was founded by Wallachians on cleared land around the 16th century .

During the first partition of Poland in 1772, Brzuśnik became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Brzuśnik 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 Saybusch in the administrative district of Katowice in the province of Silesia (since 1941 province of Upper Silesia ).

From 1975 to 1998 Brzuśnik was part of the Bielsko-Biała Voivodeship .
