Since the Middle Ages, the village was part of Poland, Bohemia, Hungary, Austria, Prussia and Germany, before becoming again part of Poland after World War II in 1945.

On February 14, 1874, the Amtsbezirk Groß Weigelsdorf – district-District of Kiełczów was created, comprising the villages of Kiełczów, Kiełczówek, Mirków and probably Kamień, as well as the land estates of Kiełczów, Kiełczówek and Kamień. Gutspächter Steiner became the administrator of the newly created district, and Waschke on December 3, 1880.[3]
