History

The area was part of Poland after the creation of the state in the 10th century. Later on, as a result of the fragmentation of Poland, it was part of the Polish Piast-ruled Duchy of Głogów until 1468. The town was mentioned in a document from 1312.

Between 1871 and 1945 the town was part of Germany and was renamed Schlesiersee in 1937 during the Nazi campaign of erasing placenames of Polish origin.[2] The original Polish name Sława was restored after Nazi Germany's defeat in World War II, when the town once again became part of Poland.
