Freyhan was founded in the 15th century. Since 1628 it formed its own manor. It was spun off from the Militsch manor and was owned by the von Maltzan family until 1691 . Already in 1660 she obtained the rights of a minority rule . Subsequently, there were frequent changes of ownership, most recently Count Pückler . The castle was built in 1695.

In 1825, 491 residents lived in the market town, plus the castle town with 535 residents. In 1841 Freyhan lost the town charter. Because of its wooded surroundings, it became a popular excursion destination.

In 1945 Freyhan belonged to the Militsch district in the Lower Silesia province of the German Empire.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . Shortly afterwards Freyhan was placed under Polish administration. Subsequently, the German residents of the village were evicted by the local Polish administration and replaced by Poles. The German village of Freyhan was renamed Cieszków .
