History
The oldest known mention of the village comes from 1286.
In the 18th century it was annexed by Prussia and from 1871 to 1945 it was also part of Germany. During World War II, the Germans operated two forced labour subcamps (E608, E703) of the Stalag VIII-B/344 prisoner-of-war camp in the village.[3] The village was restored to Poland after the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II in 1945.
