History

The area became part of the emerging Polish state in the 10th century. Initially it was administratively part of the Wleń castellany.[2] The village was first mentioned in 1318, when it was part of fragmented Piast-ruled Poland.[3]

During World War II, in 1940–1942, the Germans used Belgian, French and Soviet prisoners of war and possibly also Czech and Polish civilians for forced labour to build a road connecting the village with Przełęcz Karkonoska, however, the construction was not completed.[4]

From 1911 to 1965, Podgórzyn was connected with Jelenia Góra by tram.[5]

Sights
