In the 10th century the area became part of the emerging Polish state.

The village was mentioned in the Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis from around 1305, when it was part of fragmented Piast-ruled Poland.

During World War II, the Germans operated the E541 forced labour subcamp of the Stalag VIII-B/344 prisoner-of-war camp in the village.

[2] Following the defeat of Germany in the war, in 1945, the village became again part of Poland and its historic name was restored.

The Polish National road 94 passes through Błotnica Strzelecka, and the A4 motorway runs nearby, south of the village.
