In 1792 a church school opened in the village. Duke Albrecht von Teschen had a new school building built in 1855. In 1914, the last wolf in the Beskids was shot near Bukovec. It was prepared and was exhibited in the Bezruč school in Frýdek-Místek for a long time . In 1921 a Czech school was established and in 1937 it moved to a new school building. The tourist hut on Gírová was opened on July 9, 1932. After the Munich Agreement , Bukowiec fell to Poland in 1938. On June 25, 1939, the Catholic Church of the Assumption of Mary was consecrated. After the German occupation of Poland, Bukowetz became part of the German Empire as part of the Teschen district .
After the end of the Second World War, the place came back to Czechoslovakia and belonged to the Okres Český Těšín, which was dissolved in 1960. In 1975 it was incorporated into Jablunkov , where Bukovec formed the Jablunkov V - Bukovec district until its independence was restored in 1990.
