history
The oldest known mention of the place as Cupcici comes from 1088. Up until the 19th century Kubschütz formed an enclave of the Stolpen office within the area administered from Bautzen.
For his statistics on the Sorbian population in Upper Lusatia, Arnošt Muka determined a population of 245 inhabitants in the 1880s; 228 of them were Sorbs (93%) and 17 were Germans. According to Ernst Tschernik , the Sorbian-speaking proportion of the population in the municipality (including Blösa, Scheckwitz and Soritz) had decreased to 49.8% by 1956.
On July 1, 1950, the previously independent municipality of Soritz was incorporated. Further regional reforms incorporated Canitz-Christina in 1973 and Rachlau in 1974. In the course of the municipal reform of 1994, the municipalities of Jenkwitz, Kubschütz and Purschwitz were merged to form the new municipality of Kubschütz.
