History edit

Mieroszyno was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Puck County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.[2]

During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1942, several Polish families were expelled by the Germans, and enslaved as forced labour in the county.[3]
