The place was first mentioned in a document in 1384. In 1404 it was mentioned as Pogors and in 1534 as Pogortzi .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Pogosch and most of Silesia came to Prussia .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Pogosch belonged to the district of Neustadt OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1828 the place received a new school building. In 1845 there was a Erbscholtisei, a Catholic school and 78 other houses in the village. In the same year 839 people lived in Pogosch, ten of them Protestants. In 1855, 928 people lived in Pogosch. In 1865 there were 84 farmers, 15 gardeners and 84 cottagers as well as a Catholic school in the village, then written as Pogorz and Pogorsch . The two-class Catholic school was attended by 256 students in the same year. The residents were parish in Lonschnik. 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 Pogosch had 1042 inhabitants.

In 1905 a new school building was built in the village. In the referendum in Upper Silesia on March 20, 1921, 976 eligible voters voted to remain with Germany and 61 for Poland. Pogosch remained with the German Empire . In 1933 there were 1294 people living in the village. From 1933 onwards, the new National Socialist rulers carried out large-scale renaming of place names of Slavic origin. On October 10, 1936, the place was renamed Brandewalde . In 1939 Brandewalde had 1284 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 Pogórze and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. In 1950 the place came to the Opole Voivodeship and since 1999 it has belonged to the powiat Prudnicki . On March 6, 2006 , German was introduced as the second official language in the community of Zülz , which Pogosch belongs to. On November 24, 2008, the place was also given the official German place name Pogosch .
