Глогувское княжество
The name of the village is possibly derived from Slavic "chleb" ("bread"). It was first documented as "Schwchleb" and "Nemascleb" in the 1295 "Liber fundationis episcopatus Vratislaviensis" document by the Bishops of Wrocław. The settlement then was located at the eastern border of the German March of Lusatia, close to the Silesian Duchy of Głogów.
