The village of Lonschnik was founded towards the end of the 13th century at the intersection of the streets Opole - Neustadt and Neisse - Krappitz . A Lonschnik parish was mentioned in 1335 and probably donated by the Counts of Proskau . The village originally developed as an anger village around the church, but later expanded irregularly as a street village. In 1337 the village was mentioned as Lausinicz , in 1534 as Luntznickh .

The old parish church of St. Marien, which was demolished in 1718, was replaced by a new baroque building in 1723 . After the First Silesian War in 1742 Lonschnik came with most of Silesia to Prussia . In 1784 the colony of Dambine (Dębina) was founded as a hamlet of Lonschniks, 2 kilometers southeast of the village. At that time the name forms Lontschniz, Locznik and Longeznick were given for Lonschnik .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , Lonschnik belonged to the district of Neustadt OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 the place had a Catholic parish church, a Catholic school, an Erbscholtisei and another 77 houses. In the same year , 816 people lived in Lonschnik, at that time still mentioned as Lontschnig , seven of them Protestants. In 1855 846 lived in Lonschnik. In 1865 there were 15 farmers, 21 gardeners and 45 cottagers as well as a mill and a dye works in the village . The Catholic two-class school was attended by 337 students in the same year. A Protestant cemetery was created in 1870 by separating part of the Catholic cemetery. In 1874 the administrative district Chrzelitz I was founded, which consisted of the rural communities Brzesnitz, Chrzelitz, Legelsdorf, Loncznik and Pogorz and the manor districts Brzesnitz Vorwerk, Fronzke and Chrzelitz. In 1885 Lonschnik had 1060 inhabitants. In 1896 Lonschnik was connected to the railway line of the Neustadt-Gogoliner Railway Company . Lonschnik station was in the Dambine settlement.

In the referendum in Upper Silesia on March 20, 1921, 846 people (92.2%) voted in Lonschnik to remain in Germany and 75 to join Poland. Like the entire district of Neustadt, Lonschnik remained with the German Empire. In 1933, 1,191 people lived in the village. From 1933 onwards, the new National Socialist rulers carried out large-scale renaming of place names of Slavic origin. In 1936 Lonschnik was renamed Wiesengrund OS . In 1939 Wiesengrund OS had 1264 inhabitants. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Neustadt OS

In 1945 the previously German place came under Polish administration and was renamed Łącznik and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. Łącznik formed an independent municipality until 1954. In 1950 the place came to the Opole Voivodeship and since 1999 it has belonged to the powiat Prudnicki as part of the municipality of Zülz . On March 6, 2006, German was introduced as the second official language in the community of Zülz, which Lonschnik belongs to.
