During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1941, the Einsatzkompanie Gotenhafen, Schutzpolizei and SS carried out expulsions of Poles, whose houses and farms were then handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[3] Expelled Poles were enslaved as forced labour and sent either to German colonists in the region or to Germany.[3]
The Polish A1 motorway runs nearby, west of the village.
