History
From the High Middle Ages the region was part of the Kingdom of Poland, Margraviate of Brandenburg, Czech Kingdom, Teutonic Order, Brandenburg again, Prussia and Germany from 1871 to 1945, administratively located at that time in the Province of Brandenburg (Frankfurt Region), and again Poland after the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II.

When part of Prussia, after the drainage of the Oderbruch, in 1753 a new village, the present, was founded including wetlands formerly used by people from then Lietzegöricke, and therefore named after it. Lietzegöricke later adopted a name extension as Alt-Lietzegöricke (Alt and Stare both meaning "old"), and was renamed again after 1945.
