Pogódki dates back to
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), Pogódki was one of the sites of executions of Poles, carried out by the Germans in 1939 as part of the Intelligenzaktion.[3] In 1942, the occupiers carried out expulsions of Poles, who were sent to the Potulice concentration camp, and then deported either to forced labour in Germany or to the General Government (German-occupied central Poland), while their farms were then handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[4]
