The village was first mentioned in 1383 as Pechoczicz . The same place name was mentioned again in 1412. Archaeological excavations in the village have shown that the area around Piechotzütz was inhabited as early as the 8th and 9th centuries.

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Piechotzütz and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . Between 1743 and 1818 the village belonged to the Opole district .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Piechotzütz belonged to the district of Falkenberg OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1818 . In the same year a water mill was built in the village. In 1845 there were 34 houses in the village. In the same year 192 people lived in Piechotzütz, ten of them Protestants. In 1861, 330 people lived in Piechotzütz. In 1865 the village had 25 gardeners and seven cottagers. In 1874 the administrative district Puschine was founded, which consisted of the places Piechotzütz, Polish Jamke and Puschine and the manor districts Polish Jamke and Puschine. In 1885 Piechotzütz had 228 inhabitants.

In 1933 Piechotzütz had 241 residents. On July 28, 1936, the place was renamed Pechwalde . On February 1, 1937, the place name was again changed to Bauerngrund . Around 1937 several excavations took place in and around the Bauerngrund, whereby clay pots and shards from the 8th and 9th centuries were discovered. In 1939 there were 213 people living in Bauerngrund. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Falkenberg OS

As a result of the Second World War, in 1945, like most of Silesia , Bauerngrund fell under Polish administration. Subsequently, the place was renamed Piechocice and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. In 1946 the German population was expelled. In 1950 it was incorporated into the Opole Voivodeship. In 1999 the place came to the newly founded Powiat Nyski ( Neisse district ). In 2005 the village had 146 inhabitants.
