History

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1941, the German gendarmerie, Einsatzkompanie Thorn and Einsatzkompanie Gotenhafen expelled the entire population of the village, which was placed in a transit camp in Toruń and then deported to Skierniewice in the more south-eastern part of German-occupied Poland.[2]
