history

The village of Kirchberg was first mentioned in 1286. In 1296 a Catholic parish with a church is mentioned for the place. In 1447 the Registrum Denarii St Petri in Archidiaconatu Oppoliensi mentions a church on the nearby mountain. In 1534 the village was mentioned as Dlustoruby .

After the First Silesian War in 1742, Kirchberg and most of Silesia fell to Prussia . In 1748 a Protestant school was established in the village. The local Catholic community died in the 18th century. The former Catholic church on the mountain was partially demolished. Only the wooden church tower remained until it was destroyed in 1945.

In 1813 Russian troops moved through Kirchberg and crossed the Neisse here. After the reorganization of the province of Silesia , the rural community of Kirchberg belonged to the district of Falkenberg OS in the administrative district of Opole from 1817 . In 1837 a new school building for the Protestant school was built in the village. In 1845 the village consisted of 116 houses, a castle and a farm. In the same year, 764 people lived in Kirchberg, 281 of them Catholic. In 1855, 803 people lived in the village. In 1865 the village had 8 farmers, 58 gardeners and 22 cottagers. The two-class evangelical school was attended by 123 students in the same year. In 1862 a Catholic school was established in the village. In 1874 the Kirchberg district was founded, which consisted of the rural communities of Kirchberg, Rogau, Sonnenberg and Tarnitze and the manor districts of Kirchberg, Rogau, Sonnenberg and Tarnitze. In 1878 the Protestant parish Kirchberg was founded. In 1879 a stone neo-Gothic church with a 33 m high tower was built. In 1885 Kirchberg had 795 inhabitants. At the end of the 19th century, numerous businesses, including the sheep farm, the distillery, the brewery and a potash boiler, were closed. As a result, the population decreased by almost 40%.

In 1933 there were 563 people in Kirchberg. In 1939 the village had 553 inhabitants. Until the end of the war in 1945, the village of Kirchberg belonged to the Falkenberg OS district

In February 1945 the place was captured by the Red Army after sometimes violent fighting . As a result of the effects of the war, a large part of the building structure in Kirchberg was destroyed, including the Protestant church, the Catholic school and another 28 houses. In 1945 the previously German town of Kirchberg came under Polish administration, was renamed Tłustoręby and joined Gmina Niemodlin. The remaining German population was expelled on June 21, 1946. In 1950 the place came to the Opole Voivodeship . In 1999 the place came to the re-established Powiat Opolski as part of Gmina Niemodlin .
