The name of the village comes from the Polish words ''za krzewami'', which means "behind the bushes", and refers to its location. In the [[Middle Ages]] it was part of [[Piast dynasty|Piast]]-ruled [[Kingdom of Poland (1025–1385)|Poland]], and afterwards it was also part of [[Kingdom of Bohemia|Bohemia (Czechia)]], [[Kingdom of Prussia|Prussia]] and [[Germany]]. In 1936, the German administration changed the name to ''Rosengrund'' in attempt to erase traces of Polish origin.<br />

During [[World War II]] the Germans operated the E704 [[Forced labour under German rule during World War II|forced labour]] subcamp of the [[Stalag VIII-B|Stalag VIII-B/344]] [[German prisoner-of-war camps in World War II|prisoner-of-war camp]] in the village.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.lamsdorf.com/working-parties.html|title=Working Parties|website=Lamsdorf.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201029103834/https://www.lamsdorf.com/working-parties.html|accessdate=3 April 2021|archive-date=29 October 2020}}</ref> 30 Polish citizens were murdered by [[Nazi Germany]] in the village during the war.<ref>{{cite book|author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |title=Zestawienie Miejsc Zbrodni Popełnionych na Ludności Cywilnej przez Okupanta Hitlerowskiego na Ziemiach Polskich w latach 1939–1945|year=2022|language=pl|location=Warszawa|page=193|isbn=978-83-954388-3-7}}</ref> The village became again part of Poland after the defeat of Nazi Germany in the war in 1945, and its historic Polish name was restored.<br />
