The area of Żywiec with the village was separated from the Duchy of Auschwitz in the 1450s under unexplained circumstances. From 1465 it finally belonged to Poland.

During the first partition of Poland , Cięcina came to the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire in 1772 (from 1804).
