Finds from the Old, Middle and Neolithic Age indicate the early settlement of this area. The village was certainly laid out as a purely German settlement "on green meadow" before 1249; In 1253 it was first mentioned in a document as "Ruckerswalde". In 1284 Ritterswalde is named among the 65 villages that Duke Heinrich IV reclaimed from Bishop Thomas II of Wroclaw because the Wroclaw bishops had established these places in the area of ​​the ducal border forest during the settlement of the diocese . Bishop and Duke led a bitter dispute (church dispute 1282–1288), which came to an end with the duke's great church privilege in 1290. The privilege gave the bishop extensive sovereignty in the diocese; the 65 controversial villages remained episcopal. The first village church also dates from the 13th century. The building was built after 1250 on the Kirchberg in the center of the village. In 1301 the place is mentioned as Ruckerswalde and in 1373 as Rugkierswalde .
