Korzonek remained with the German Empire after the division of Upper Silesia . In 1936, the place was renamed in the course of a wave of renaming of the Nazi era in ponds . In the 1940s, a settlement with several blocks of flats was built west of the ponds for the workers of the IG Farben works. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Cosel .
In 1945 the formerly German town came under Polish administration and was then attached to the Silesian Voivodeship and renamed the Polish Korzonek . The district of Cosel was renamed Powiat Kozielski. In 1950 the place came to the Opole Voivodeship . In 1975 the powiat Kozielski was dissolved. In 1999 the place came to the newly founded Powiat Kędzierzyńsko-Kozielski . On April 23, 2007, German was introduced as the second official language in the Birawa community.
