Koritau was first mentioned in 1291 as a royal chamber property . In that year, the Bohemian King Wenceslaus II donated a tithe from the “Choritowe” estate that belonged to him to the parish church of Glatz. The Bohemian King John of Luxembourg confirmed this donation on July 5, 1319 in Nuremberg. Koritau was the seat of the rulership of the same name and parish after Glatz. It belonged to the Glatzer Land , with which it shared the history of its political and ecclesiastical affiliation from the beginning.

Around 1400 the Koritau estate was owned by the von Ratold family. In 1499 the brothers Albrecht , Georg and Karl von Munsterberg, who were also Counts von Glatz, granted the Pischkowitz landlord Hans von Haugwitz and his descendants hunting rights over Koritau. Koritau remained a chamber property until 1577 . In that year Emperor Rudolf II sold it together with other chamber villages to cover the costs of the Turkish wars . Koritau acquired Rudolf's cupbearer Friedrich von Falkenhain , who at the same time also bought the villages of Hollenau, Kamnitz, Reichenau and Heyde . Since 1571 he was married to Anna von Reichenbach , widowed von Seydlitz . In 1580 he acquired the Vorwerk in Oberschwedeldorf , later called Rübischhof , from the imperial valets Caspar Bernauer and Hans Popp , which, however, burned out in 1585 due to a lightning strike. In 1586 Friedrich von Falkenhain had a free judge's estate built and in 1597 he bought the Oberhof in Altwilmsdorf from Adam von Tschischwitz . He had a small village built on cleared forest near Heyde, which he called Falkenhain .

After the death of his father, Seyfried von Falkenhain sold the Reichenauer Vorwerk and its accessories to Christoph von Donig in Oberschwedeldorf and a year later the Altwilmsdorfer Oberhof and his share in Heyde the Glatzer Jesuit College . Since Seyfried died without a biological heir, his sister Anna Margaretha, who was married to the imperial war council and colonel Gottfried von Rübisch, inherited the place Koritau. During the Thirty Years' War , the imperial family burned down the Koritau manorial house and the associated farm buildings in 1622. Widowed since 1621, Anna Margaretha married Wenzel Adam Podstatsky von Prusinowitz from Moravia for the second time . After her death in 1632 a lengthy process arose over the inheritance claims, as a result of which the estate fell into disrepair and was forcibly administered by Dietrich von Haugwitz on Oberpischkowitz and Adam Christian von Ampassek on Niederpischkowitz, among others.

The credit association of the manor owners “Landschaft” finally sold Koritau in 1647, together with the upper and lower courts, to the imperial colonel and Glatzer commander Wolfgang Ferdinand von Fitsch. He united the rulership of Koritau with the neighboring Reichenau and Oberschwedeldorfer Engelhof , which had been in his possession since 1640. In 1649 the Koritauer Hof was again the victim of a fire disaster. In 1652 Koritau inherited Otto Heinrich von Fitsch, who was elevated to the status of baron along with his legitimate descendants in 1671 . Due to excessive indebtedness, the entire Koritau estate had to be sold to Johann Isaias von Hartig , heir on the Rückers , in 1685 . In 1700 he bought the Birgwitz estate at the highest bidder and added it to the Koritau rulership. After his death in 1708, his possessions were divided among his sons. The rule of Koritau fell to the third son Anton Isaias von Hartig by court order in 1711. He was an imperial councilor in Vienna and married to Maria Catharina von Hock. In Koritau he built the castle. Before his death in 1753 he was raised to the rank of count. His son Anton Casimir von Hartig sold the Koritau rule in 1761 to Leopold G (e) nedel, the Kommerzienrat and heir on Niederrathen . After his death, the Pischkowitz landlord, Count Anton von Haugwitz, bought the place, who then sold parts of the Koritau rule (Reichenau, Kamnitz, Ludwigsdörfel, etc.) to Anton Franz in 1796.

After the First Silesian War in 1742 and finally with the Peace of Hubertusburg in 1763, Koritau and the County of Glatz fell to Prussia . After the reorganization of Prussia, it belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and was incorporated into the district of Glatz from 1816–1945 .

Around 1800, the Koritau rule included the villages of Birgwitz, Hollenau and Falkenhain as well as shares in Schwenz , Hohberg, Oberschwedeldorf, Ludwigsdörfel and Mügwitz. Evidence for this period is as follows: a castle with an outbuilding, a Kretscham , four farmers, eleven gardeners and cottagers , including a blacksmith and a shoemaker.

Since 1874 Koritau formed the administrative district Coritau , to which the rural communities Koritau, Hollenau, Mügwitz, Nieder Halbendorf, Roschwitz and Steinwitz as well as the manor districts Koritau and Mügwitz belonged.

As a result of World War II , Koritau and most of Silesia fell to Poland in 1945 and was renamed Korytów . The German population - as far as they had not fled before - was expelled in 1946 . Some of the new residents were displaced from eastern Poland . From 1975 to 1998 Korytów belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship ( Waldenburg ).
