history
Löwenstein was founded as a city before 1250 and was created as part of the planned settlement of the foothills. It was first mentioned around 1270 in the Heinrichauer foundation book. In 1282 the Löwensteiner Vogt owned part of the Hufen in the northwestern village of Schönheide, which was probably a town of Löwenstein.
After the ducal foundation of the city of Frankenstein in 1286, which was created through the dissolution of the two smaller cities Löwenstein and Frankenberg , Löwenstein with its urban privileges, most of the citizens and half of its place name passed to the larger Frankenstein, and Löwenstein sank down to a village .
Since 1331 the village of Löwenstein has belonged to the newly founded Duchy of Münsterberg and with this came under Bohemian fiefdom in 1336, which Bolko II of Münsterberg recognized in the Treaty of Straubing in the same year.
After the First Silesian War , it fell to Prussia in 1742 . After the reorganization of Prussia, Löwenstein belonged to the province of Silesia from 1815 and from 1818 was incorporated into the district of Frankenstein in Silesia , with which it remained connected until 1945. Since 1874 the rural communities of Peterwitz and Löwenstein formed the administrative district of Peterwitz. In 1939 it consisted of 233 residents.
After the end of World War II , Löwenstein was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying forces in the summer of 1945 . The Poles introduced the place name Koziniec for Löwenstein . The German population was subsequently expelled by the local Polish administrative authority . Some of the newly settled residents came from areas east of the Curzon Line , as part of the " West displacement of Poland ". Their areas of origin in what was formerly Eastern Poland were conquered by Poland in the Polish-Soviet War (1919–1921), fell to the Soviet Union with the Soviet occupation in 1939, were occupied by the Germans during the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941 and returned after the Second World War The Soviet Union. In the following years, the Löwenstein Castle was devastated .
From 1975 to 1998 Koziniec belonged to the Wałbrzych Voivodeship ( Waldenburg ).
