The town, located at a ford over the Katzbach on the road from Breslau to Glogau, dates back to the founding of the Liegnitz paladin Iko Mironowic in 1259. From around 1400, the town was owned by the von Zedlitz family for around 200 years. According to family tradition, Otto von Zedlitz had the previous wooden moated castle replaced by a stone building (the High House) around 1422, which, together with the tower and the northern wing of the building, forms the core of today's complex. From the 1540s, the castle was expanded into a palace.
