Memorial at the site of the former Nazi German forced labour camp
The history of the village dates back to medieval Poland. Before 1945 it was part of Germany. During World War II, from 1940 to 1944, a Nazi German forced labour camp for Jews, and initially also Poles, was located in the village.[2][3] A memorial is located at the site.
