history
Plagwitz was first mentioned in a document in 1209, when Duke Heinrich I of the city of Löwenberg confirmed jurisdiction over the village. In 1330 Seyfried and Nicol von Raussendorf owned the estate. In 1346 the Löwenberg parish church received part of Plagwitz as a donation. In 1427 the Hussites devastated the place. Since 1475 Plagwitz belonged to the Lords of Talkenberg. The castle for Rampholt von Talkenberg was built between 1550 and 1562. At the beginning of the 17th century, the von Schaffgotsch gentlemen acquired the estate.
From 1816 to 1945 Plagwitz belonged to the Löwenberg district in Silesia . The province of Silesia operated a sanatorium and nursing home here .
On the night of July 8th to 9th, 1905, the windmill burned down; The body of the murdered miller Knappe was found in the rubble. The investigations showed that the robbery murder by Knappes servant August Sternickel with the accomplices Reinhold and Wilhelm Pietsch had been committed.
In 1939 there were 1868 people in Plagwitz. After the end of the Second World War, Plagwitz came to Poland and was renamed Płakowice . Later the village was incorporated into the municipality of Lwówek Śląski and until the end of 1999 had a Schulzenamt. Since the beginning of 2000 Płakowice has been part of Lwówek Śląski.
