History edit
In the 10th century the area became part of the emerging Polish state, and later on, it was part of Poland, Bohemia (Czechia), Prussia, and Germany. During World War II, the Germans operated the E428 forced labour subcamp of the Stalag VIII-B/344 prisoner-of-war camp at the local sawmill.[2] After the defeat of Germany in the war, in 1945, the region became again part of Poland.
