The village of Sabine was first mentioned in a document in 1525. The place existed before and was probably founded in the 13th or 14th century under German law.

After the First Silesian War in 1742 Sabine and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . Between 1743 and 1817 the village belonged to the Opole district .

After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community Sabine belonged from 1817 to the district of Falkenberg OS in the administrative district of Opole . In 1826 a school was set up in the village. In 1840 the Annenhof farm was laid out in Sabine . In 1845 there was a castle, an outbuilding, a Catholic school and 60 houses in the village. In the same year, 457 people lived in Sabine, 11 of them Protestants. In 1865 the village had nine farmers, 14 half-farmers and 22 cottagers. The one-class school had 115 students in the same year. In 1874 the Wiersbel district was founded, which consisted of the rural communities Sabine and Wiersbel and the estate districts of Sabine and Wiersbel. In 1885 Sabine had 611 inhabitants. In 1887, with the opening of the Opole – Neisse railway line, the town was connected to the Upper Silesian railway network.

In 1933 Sabine had 749 inhabitants. On June 10, 1936, the place name was changed to Annahof . In 1939 Annahof had 806 inhabitants. Until 1945 the place was in the district of Falkenberg OS

As a result of the Second World War, Annahof fell under Polish administration in 1945, like most of Silesia . Subsequently the place was renamed Sowin and joined the Silesian Voivodeship. In 1950 it was incorporated into the Opole Voivodeship. In 1999 the place came to the newly founded Powiat Nyski (Neisse district) . In 2011, 521 people lived in Sowin.
