I byen ligger også en norsk stavkirke, som ble flyttet hit fra Vang i Valdres. Vang stavkirke var bygget på begynnelsen av 1100-tallet. Når den var blitt for liten og trengte kostbar renovering ble den solgt til Kong Frederik Vilhelm IV av Preussen og fraktet til Karpacz.

Den ble innviet 28. juli 1844. A spa town and ski resort in Jelenia Góra County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, south-western Poland, and one of the most important centres for mountain hiking and skiing, including ski jumping.

Since 2020, the town has been hosting the annual international Economic Forum. The first settlements in the area of Karpacz are noted by the official website of the city as being of probable Celtic origin and date to the 4th or 3rd century BC[3] when they inhabited the region as part of gold-digging taking place in the area. The area was part of medieval Poland, after the establishment of the state in the 10th century. In the early 12th century the area was generally uninhabited, as mentioned in the oldest Polish chronicle Gesta principum Polonorum. First mention of permanent location of the town is dated to the beginning of 15th century, and connected to the destruction of a village called Broniów, whose inhabitants moved to settle the area currently located at the altitude of the town's railway station.

The settlement was mentioned around the year 159
