[2] The village was established in the late 13th century[3] as part of a larger settlement campaign taking place on the territory of what would later be known as Upper Silesia.

[4][5][6] It meant that the villages were still in the early process of location (the size of land to pay a tithe from was not yet precise).

The local church was first mentioned in the register of Peter's Pence payment among Catholic parishes of Oświęcim deaconry of the Diocese of Kraków as villa Bertholdi.

[9] In 1457 Jan IV of Oświęcim agreed to sell the duchy to the Polish Crown, and in the accompanying document issued on 21 February the villages were mentioned as Byertholtowicze and Komorowicze.

[10] The territory of the Duchy of Oświęcim was eventually incorporated into Poland in 1564 and formed Silesian County of Kraków Voivodeship.

In order to differentiate it from the Silesian counterpart across Biała River, which since then constituted a state border, they were dubbed as Polskie (Polish).

[12] In the 19th century it was mostly known as Batzdorf, and in order to differentiate the village from the Lesser Polish counterpart across Biała River, it was also dubbed as Niemieckie (German) or Śląskie (Silesian).

[17] In the interwar period Komorowice were industrialized, the biggest factory opened at that the time was the one producing matches.

In the 1970s Fabryka Samochodów Małolitrażowych, commonly known as FSM, was built in the southern part of the municipality.
