The village was founded under German law in the first half of the 13th century. In the work Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from the years 1295-1305, the place is mentioned as Curopasch .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Korpitz and most of Silesia fell to Prussia .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Korpitz belonged to the district of Falkenberg OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 the Polish name is mentioned as Kuropraszcz . In the same year the village had 52 houses and 253 Catholic residents. Among the villagers were a Kretschmer, a shoemaker and two traders. In 1861 there were 282 people in Korpitz. In 1865 the village had 22 gardeners and 11 cottagers. In 1874 the district of Nüßdorf was founded, which consisted of Bauschwitz, Ferdinandshof, Korpitz, Lammsdorf, Mauschwitz and Nüßdorf and the manor districts of Bauschwitz, Ferdinandshof, Lammsdorf, Mauschwitz and Nüßdorf. In 1885 Korpitz had 197 inhabitants.

In 1933 Korpitz had 179 inhabitants. On September 19, 1936 the place name was changed to Korndorf . In 1939 there were 170 people in Korndorf. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Falkenberg OS

As a result of the Second World War, Korndorf came under Polish administration in 1945, like most of Silesia . Subsequently, the place was renamed Kuropas and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. In 1946 the German population was expelled. In 1950 it was incorporated into the Opole Voivodeship. In 1999 the place came to the newly founded Powiat Nyski ( Neisse district ).

The village community center was opened on November 25, 2006. In the same year 170 people lived in the village.
