History

edit

The village was a possession of the city of Gdańsk, located in the Pomeranian Voivodeship[2] in the province of Royal Prussia in the Greater Poland Province of the Kingdom of Poland. It was annexed by Prussia in the Second Partition of Poland in 1793, and from 1871 to 1919 it was also part of Germany. Following World War I, from 1920 it formed part of the Free City of Danzig (Gdańsk), until it was occupied by Germany at the start of World War II in 1939. It became again part of Poland following Germany's defeat in the war in 1945.
