After the Silesian Wars, it came along with the county of Glatz in 1763 with the Peace of Hubertusburg to Prussia. 1793 consisted of 19 houses where 135 people lived. After the reorganization of Prussia belonged since 1815 to the province of Silesia and was from 1816 to 1945 the county Glatz incorporated. It formed its own rural community and belonged to the administrative district Tassau. The population fed mainly on agriculture and weaving house. 1939 were counted 85 inhabitants. As a result of the Second World War, it fell in 1945 as almost all of Silesia to Poland and was renamed Zimne Vody. The German population was expelled. The new inhabitants were partly displaced persons from eastern Poland. Many of them left the place in the next few decades, so Zimne Vody is now largely depopulated and not inhabited houses were left to decay. 1975-1998 was Zimne Vody to Voivodeship Wałbrzych.
