Greiffenhayn was first mentioned in a 1283 deed, it was acquired by the Augustine Canons Regular at Żagań in 1388. Against their resistance, it became part of the Silesian Duchy of Żagań under the Piast duke Jan I, after his father-in-law Elector Rudolf III of Saxony had devastated the settlement. The Canons Regular suppressed the Protestant Reformation, which was not introduced until the area was conquered by Prussia during the First Silesian War in 1742. A Protestant church was erected in 1830.
