In the earliest documents, no distinction was made between large and small Pramsen. In 1295 a place called "Pramsina" was mentioned in a document in the Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis . In a document from Opava dated February 18, 1327, another mention as "Pramsyn" follows. The place name Parva Pramsen has been handed down from 1423 .

The first castle was built in the village in the 17th century. After the First Silesian War in 1742, Klein Pramsen and most of Silesia came to Prussia . In 1784 Klein Pramsen had 18 farmers, 33 gardeners, 15 cottagers and 401 residents. In 1818 Klein Pramsen had 13 farmers, 33 gardeners, 15 cottagers and two farms (including Neuhof).

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Klein Pramsen belonged to the district of Neustadt OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1816 . In 1845 there were three outworks in the village, a Catholic school, a water mill, a pub, a brewery, a distillery and 91 other houses. In the same year 679 people lived in Klein Pramsen, seven of them Protestants. The Catholic residents were parish in Groß Pramsen, the Protestants in Neustadt. In 1855 644 people lived in Klein Pramsen. In 1865 there were 13 farmers, 32 gardeners and 44 cottages in the village. At that time, the place had a water mill, a post mill and a school with 115 students and was parish in Groß Pramsen . In 1874 the district of Klein Pramsen was founded, which consisted of the rural communities of Klein Pramsen, Leuber, Zeiselwitz and the manor districts of Klein Pramsen and Zeiselwitz. The first head of office was the manor owner Alfred Count Matuschka von Toppolczan. In 1885 Klein Pramsen had 630 inhabitants.

In the referendum in Upper Silesia on March 20, 1921, Klein Pramsen was outside the voting area. In 1933 there were 735 inhabitants. In 1939 the place had 745 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 Prężynka and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. The native German population was systematically expelled. The first Poles to settle came from the Kresy. In 1950 the place came to the Opole Voivodeship and since 1999 it belongs to the Powiat Prudnicki .
