history

According to legend, the village was founded in 1241 during the Battle of Walstatt , as it offered refuge for fleeing people due to its hidden location. A glassworks already existed here in the 14th century, the ruins of which can still be found. There was also a well-known tavern, whose abandoned vaults were visible until the middle of the 19th century. Even before the outbreak of the Thirty Years War , the village was abandoned by its inhabitants, not least because of the danger of flooding. According to tradition, some of them subsequently founded the nearby town of Petersdorf (around 1600) . In the middle of the 18th century, the village was repopulated by farmers, gardeners and craftsmen.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Quirl and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . In 1818 it came to the district of Hirschberg in the Giant Mountains . In 1830 the district of Quirl was formed from the rural community of Quirl . In 1845 the village consisted of a Protestant school and another 127 houses. In the same year the village had 673 inhabitants, 39 of them Catholic.

In 1933 there were 1,019 inhabitants in Quirl, in 1939 there were 1,044.

As a result of the Second World War, the previously German Quirl fell under Polish administration in 1945. It was initially renamed Gniewków and subsequently assigned to the Silesian Voivodeship. In December 1946 the name was changed to Kostrzyca. Until 1946, the inhabitants were expelled and the village was resettled by Poland . In 1950 Kostrzyca came to the Wroclaw Voivodeship. Between 1975 and 1998 the village belonged to the Jelenia Góra Voivodeship . Since 1999 it has belonged to the Jeleniogórski Powiat ( Jelenia Góra County ) in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship .
