The Slavic name denotes a place między rzekami ( between the rivers ), the rivers would be Jasienica and Wapienica .

Around the second quarter of the 15th century, in the course of the next wave of German eastern settlements next to Poland (Slavs), a new settlement emerged upstream. It was first mentioned in 1447 as the parish of Conradsvalde and in 1452 as Konradiswalde . It was later briefly called Kurzwald and finally Międzyrzecze Górne (German Ober Kurzwald ), while the old Międzyrzecze became Międzyrzecze Dolne (German Nieder Kurzwald ).

Since 1572 it belonged to the dominion of Bielitz (from 1754 Duchy of Bielitz ).
