History

edit

It was first mentioned in 1257, when it was part of medieval Piast-ruled Poland.

Initially a village, the settlement was incorporated into Breslau (Wrocław) in 1928.[2] In 1991, after reforms in the administrative division of Wrocław, Żerniki became one of the city's 48 districts.[3]
