The Battle of Węgierska Górka was a two-day-long defence of a Polish fortified area in south of Żywiec Region (Lesser Poland) during the opening stages of the Invasion of Poland of 1939. Although the Polish position was not completed and only five bunkers were manned, the line was defended for two days and nights against superior German forces of the German 7th Infantry Division. One of the bunkers was successfully evacuated by the Polish 1st Mountain Brigade, but the others lacked radio receivers and did not receive the order to retreat. Eventually, the Germans managed to break through the Polish positions, but with heavy casualties on their side and with a significant delay.

Mountains and hills of the Beskids, which were covered by dense forests, were at that time settled by Polish farmers, who gradually moved southwards along the Soła river. After the Poles, in the second half of the 16th century, came shepherds from Wallachia, who in the course of the time assimilated with Polish population. In 1772 (see Partitions of Poland) Milówka was annexed by the Austrian Empire, and became part of the province of Galicia, where it remained until late 1918. According to the Austrian census of 1900, the village had the population of 2,678, with 93% Catholics, and 6.5% Jews. Until 1975 Milówka was administratively tied with Kraków (with the exception of World War II, when it was directly annexed into the Third Reich). Among points of interest there is a Regional Museum, with a wooden peasant house from 1739, and a parish church (1834).
