The village was first mentioned in 1284 as Marquardi villa . At that time it consisted of 17 Hufen as well as a Scholtisei with four Hufen, a tavern and a mill with two wheels. From 1290 it belonged to the clerical principality of Neisse . In the Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from the years 1295–1305, the spelling Marquardi villa is passed on again. In 1360 the place was mentioned as Markwartsdorf . In 1592 the Markersdorf estate was owned by the bishop's secretary Heinrich von Freund, who presumably bequeathed it to his grandson Nikolaus von Troilo , whose mother was a née von Freund.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Markersdorf and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Markersdorf belonged to the district of Neisse in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 there was a Scholtisei and 57 other houses in the village. In the same year, 327 people lived in Markersdorf, all of them Catholic. In 1855 there were 330 people. In 1865 there was a Scholtisei, 13 farmers, four gardeners and 16 cottagers as well as a distillery, a bleaching facility, a pub and a mill. In 1874, the district of Polish Wette was founded, which consisted of the rural communities Dürr Kamitz, Markersdorf and Polish Wette and the manor districts of Dürr Kamitz and Polish Wette. The first head of office was the landowner Lorenz in Markersdorf. In 1885 Markersdorf had 325 inhabitants.

In 1933 there were 251 people in Markersdorf and 235 in 1939. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Neisse .

As a result of the Second World War, Markersdorf and most of Silesia fell to Poland in 1945. It was subsequently renamed Markowice . From 1950 it belonged to the Opole Voivodeship and from 1999 to the re-established Powiat Nyski .
