The place was first mentioned in 1353 as Kossowa , when the owner of the village, Dziersław (Dzierżko) from Stogniowice, received permission to separate the village from the parish in Marcyporęba and to join the new parish in Tłuczań . Most of the village had a common history with Tłuczań and Chrząstowice .
