The place was first mentioned in 1233 as Lubra . Other traditional place names were Lubrac (1321) and Lubrzi (1489) - the name Lewber appeared in 1464. Leuber emerged as an anger village in connection with the German eastern settlement , west of the Prudnik (Neustadt) –Krappitz road. Connected with Prudnik, the village fell from the Polish Piasts to Moravia at the end of the 13th century . In 1337 it came to Duke Bolko II of Falkenberg , which in 1327 was a fiefdom of the crown of Bohemia . Together with the Duchy of Opole it fell to Bohemia in 1532 as a settled fiefdom , whose kings had been the Habsburgs since 1526 .

A pastor from Leuber is documented for the first time in 1464, although the local church in the oldest part of the village, on the middle Anger, is probably much older. In the course of the Reformation she became Protestant in 1557 until she was re-Catholicized in 1638. Nevertheless, some Protestants still lived in Leuber afterwards. In 1561 the city council of Prudnik bought several places in the area, including the church village Leuber.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Leuber and most of Silesia came to Prussia .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community Leuber belonged to the district of Neustadt OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 there was a Erbscholtisei, a freehold estate, a Catholic parish church, a Catholic school and another 160 houses in the village. In the same year 919 people lived in Leuber, 29 of them Protestants. In 1855 there were 1006 people in Leuber. In 1865 there were 63 farmer, 18 gardener and 39 cottager jobs in the village. The Catholic school was attended by 197 students in the same year. In 1874 the district of Klein Pramsen was founded, which consisted of the rural communities of Klein Pramsen, Leuber, Zeiselwitz and the manor districts of Klein Pramsen and Zeiselwitz. In 1885 Leuber had 1,182 inhabitants. To the west of Leuber, the roads leading from Krappitz and Cosel to Neustadt crossed . When these traffic routes were supplemented by two corresponding railway lines, the village was connected to the Neustadt – Gogolin line of the Neustadt- Gogolin Railway Company in 1896 . This brought a certain upswing, which was expressed in the construction of single-family houses on the outskirts.

In 1933 there were 1209 people in Leuber and 1239 in 1939. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Neustadt OS

In 1945 the previously German place came under Polish administration and was renamed Lubrza and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. The German population was expelled. As a result, Polish settlers, mainly from Naprawa in the Powiat Myślenicki, partially compensated for the population loss . In 1950 the place came to the Opole Voivodeship . The municipality of Lubrza was defined within its current boundaries as early as the 1973 administrative reform. In 1999 the place came to the powiat Prudnicki . 200 the place had 988 inhabitants and a total of 282 houses.
