Pisarzowice [pisaʐɔˈvit͡sɛ] is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wilamowice, within Bielsko County, Silesian Voivodeship, in southern Poland. It lies approximately 4 kilometres (2 mi) south of Wilamowice, 8 km (5 mi) north-east of Bielsko-Biała, and 42 km (26 mi) south of the regional capital Katowice. The village has a population of 4,673.
The village was first mentioned in 1326 in the register of Peter's Pence payment among Catholic parishes of Oświęcim deaconry of the Diocese of Kraków as Villa scriptoris. It is possible that it was founded by Władysław I Herman (1246-1281), the Duke of Opole after Mongol raids in the first half of the 13th century.
Politically the village belonged then to the Duchy of Oświęcim, formed in 1315 in the process of feudal fragmentation of Poland and was ruled by a local branch of Piast dynasty. In 1327 the duchy became a fee of the Kingdom of Bohemia. In 1457 Jan IV of Oświęcim agreed to sell the duchy to the Polish Crown, and in the accompanying document issued on 21 February the village was mentioned as Pyszarowicze.
