Strzeleczki was once a town, and is currently a village being the seat of the municipality of the same name, located in the Krapkowice district, in the Prudnik land. It was established at the beginning of the 13th century as a market settlement.
The name of the village derives from shooters – ducal hunters using bows. Strzeleczki received town rights in 1327. During this period, a parish had its seat in the town, and from 1375 a school operated – one of the oldest in Opole Silesia. Strzeleczki was burned by the Hussites in 1428, and two centuries later again by the Swedish troops during the Thirty Years' War. The town lost its town rights in 1750. At the end of the 19th century, the villages of Oracze and Kopania were attached to Strzeleczki, and it was also connected by rail with other towns in the region. In the village, there is a 16th-century late Baroque parish church dedicated to St. Martin, the cemetery church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross built in the Neo-Gothic style, and the ruins of a 19th-century windmill.
