Klonówka was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Tczew County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.[2]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), the Germans expelled several Polish families, whose farms were then handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[3]
