history
In a papal document from 1250, the place was first mentioned as Bistrica . In 1580 Polish Weistritz was sold to the Kämmereidorf von Schweidnitz, but in 1812 it was sold again.
After the First Silesian War in 1742, Polish Weistritz fell to Prussia and later became part of the Schweidnitz district . At the time of the Seven Years' War , the Annamühle in the village was converted into a paper mill. After the Seven Years' War a school was founded in Polish Weistritz. A teacher taught 94 children there. In the place there was a war memorial, a dominion and three water mills. At the end of the village was a tow factory that was previously a molasses, alcohol and soda factory.
In 1895 the rural community had three places to live, 39 inhabited houses, including the Annamühle, a house with 11 residents and the chemical fertilizer factory, a house with 32 residents, an inhabited mill, a school and 104 ordinary households. At that time 480 people lived in the village, 387 of them Protestant and 93 Catholic. The place was Protestant and Catholic to Schweidnitz parish. Polish Weistritz had its own registry office and formed its own administrative district. In 1898 Polish Weistritz was renamed Nieder Weistritz.
As a result of the Second World War, Niederweistritz and most of Silesia fell to Poland in 1945. Subsequently it was renamed Bystrzyca Dolna by the Polish administration . The German residents were expelled , unless they had fled beforehand . Some of the newly settled residents came from eastern Poland , which had fallen to the Soviet Union.
