history
The place was first mentioned in 1359 as Cantersdorf . The area around Kantersdorf was partially populated as early as the Neolithic Age. This is proven by several archaeological excavations in the place. Around 1600 the renaissance castle was built in Kantersdorf under the princes of Brieg .
After the First Silesian War in 1742, Kantersdorf and most of Silesia fell to Prussia .
After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Kantersdorf belonged to the district of Brieg in the administrative district of Breslau from 1816 . In 1845 there was a castle, an outbuilding, an evangelical school, a brewery, a distillery and 84 houses in the village. In the same year, 384 people lived in Kantersdorf, 48 of them Catholic. In 1874 the district of Taschenberg-Michelau was founded, which consisted of the rural communities of Cantersdorf, Jeschen, Klein Neudorf, Michelau, Taschenberg and the estate districts of Cantersdorf, Klein Neudorf and Taschenberg. In 1885 Kantersdorf had 370 inhabitants.
In 1933 Kantersdorf had 395 and 389 inhabitants. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Brieg .
As a result of the Second World War, the German town of Kantersdorf fell under Polish administration in 1945, like most of Silesia . Subsequently, the place was renamed Kantorowice and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. In 1950 it was incorporated into the Opole Voivodeship. In 1999, the place came to the newly founded Powiat Breszki ( Brieg district ).
