The village was established around 1835 by Karl Scheiff, the heir of Smozhe. He invited Catholic German settlers from Western Bohemia, fueling the society of Galician Germans. In the same year two other nearby German colonies were established in the same way, Karlsdorf and Annaberg, forming a small language island. Felizienthal became a seat of the German-speaking Catholic parish in 1863, moved here from Karlsdorf.
In the interwar period the village belonged to Poland.
