history

From the Middle Ages the village belonged to the Łącko of the Poor Clares in Stary Sącz (Alt Sandez).

After the First Partition of Poland , Zagorzyn became part of the new Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria of the Habsburg Empire (from 1804).

In 1788, German Roman Catholic colonists were settled in the course of the Josephine colonization . The colonists had relations with the neighboring colonies in Barcice , Łącko or Gaboń . By the end of the 19th century, the descendants of the colonists were Polonized (e.g. Stanley (Stanisław) Kronenberg, a nuclear physicist who emigrated to Austria in 1945 and later to North America). In 1900 the village had 675 inhabitants, all of whom were Roman Catholic, 669 were Polish-speaking and 6 were German-speaking.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, Zagorzyn came to Poland. This was interrupted by the occupation of Poland by the Wehrmacht in World War II , during which it belonged to the Generalgouvernement .

From 1975 to 1998 Zagorzyn was part of the Nowy Sącz Voivodeship .
