The name is derived from the word krasny (Polish archaic for red , beautiful , pretty , magnificent ; Czech krásný ).

Politically, the village originally belonged to the Duchy of Opole-Ratibor (Teschener Kastellanei ) during the period of Polish particularism . The duchy was divided in 1281 after the death of Wladislaus I von Opole . The village finally (1290) belonged to the Duchy of Teschen , the feudal lordship of the Kingdom of Bohemia , and from 1526 it belonged to the Habsburg Monarchy . In 1610 the village was assigned to the reactivated Dominican monastery by Duke Adam Wenzel .

After the abolition of patrimonial it formed a municipality in Austrian Silesia , Teschen district and judicial district Teschen from 1850 . In the meantime the ethnographic group of the Teschen Wallachians took shape, also living in Krasna. They traditionally spoke Teschen dialects . In 1900 Krasna (without Gułdowy) had 44 houses with 282 inhabitants, all of them Polish-speaking, 218 (77.3%) Roman Catholic, 64 (22.7%) Protestant. In 1910 there were 44 houses with 297 inhabitants, all of them Polish-speaking, 223 (75.1%) Roman Catholic, 74 (24.9%) Protestant.
