History
Previously a separate village, it was a possession of the city of Gdańsk, located in the Pomeranian Voivodeship in the Kingdom of Poland[1] until the Second Partition of Poland in 1793, when it was annexed by Prussia. In 1871 it became part of Germany. During World War II, in 1939–1941, it was the location of a subcamp of the Stutthof concentration camp, in which the Germans imprisoned 200 people as forced labour at a time.[2] Following Germany's defeat in World War II, in 1945, the village was reintegrated with Poland.
It was included within town limits of Krynica Morska in 1991. Until then it was a village administratively located in Gmina Sztutowo.[3]
