It lies approximately 8 kilometres (5 mi) south-west of Wińsko, 10 kilometres (6 mi) north-west of Wołów, and 47 kilometres (29 mi) north-west of the regional capital Wrocław.
The village was first mentioned as Uconar in a document of Cyprian, bishop of Wrocław from 1202, when it was part of fragmented Piast-ruled Poland. [1] The name of the village is of Polish origin and comes either from the word konar which means " branch" or from the word koń which means "horse". [2] [3]
Under Prussian rule, the world's first factory for extracting sugar from sugar beets was opened in 1802 in Konary (then known as Kunern). [4]
