History
The village was founded in 1599 within the Kingdom of Poland. In 1772 it was annexed by the Kingdom of Prussia in the First Partition of Poland. On 6 May 1863, the village was the site of a massacre of Polish inhabitants. Local farmers protested the taking of the lake from the village and handing it over to a local miller. Prussian troops fired on the crowd, killing more than a dozen people, including women, and wounding 30. In 1884, the Saint Roch chapel was built by the local people to commemorate the victims.
