history

The village of Sonnenberg was founded before 1300 when the Grottkauer Land was settled. The place is first mentioned in 1320. In 1370 the village is mentioned as Sunnynberg . Archaeological finds from prehistoric times indicate a very early settlement of the area around Sonneberg.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Sonnenberg and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . Between 1743 and 1817 the place belonged to the district of Grottkau . In 1780 the place had a manor, the Vorwerk Marsche, a cottager and 34 gardeners as well as 286 inhabitants. There was also a water mill on the Neisse.

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Sonnenberg belonged to the district of Falkenberg OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1817 . In 1845 the village consisted of 85 houses, a castle, an outbuilding, a Catholic burial chapel and a Catholic school. In the same year 583 people lived in Sonnenberg, 43 of them Protestants. In 1855 638 people lived in the village. Around 1860, the St. Hubertusgrün hunting lodge was built southeast of Sonnenberg. In 1865 the village had 36 gardeners and 24 cottagers. The school was attended by 130 students in the same year. In 1874 the Kirchberg district was founded, which consisted of the rural communities of Kirchberg, Rogau, Sonnenberg and Tarnitze and the manor districts of Kirchberg, Rogau, Sonnenberg and Tarnitze. In 1885 Sonnenberg had 564 inhabitants.

In 1933, 475 people lived in Sonnenberg. In 1939 the village had 463 inhabitants. Until the end of the war in 1945 the place belonged to the district of Falkenberg OS

In March 1945 the village was captured by the Red Army . Then the previously German place came under Polish administration, was renamed Krasna Góra and joined the Gmina Niemodlin. The remaining German population was expelled in June 1946. In 1950 the place came to the Opole Voivodeship . In the 1950s, the St. Hubertusgrün hunting lodge to the southeast was demolished.
