The community was first mentioned as Nemodlin in a 1224 deed and received town privileges in 1283.

When the Opole line of the Piast dynasty became extinct in 1532, various noble families like the Hohenzollern, the House of Zierotin, and the Prazma (German, Praschma) held the estate (also known as Falkenberg) until the 1940s.

In the 18th century, Falkenberg belonged to the tax inspection region of Neustadt.

[3] In 1871, with the Prussian-led Unification of Germany, the town became part of the German Empire.

The estate's final owner, Count Frederick Leopold von Praschma, left a Renaissance castle built around 1600, which became offices for the State Repatriation Office, then served as a high school and NCO school.
