History
The local Catholic parish was founded in 1222 by Janusz Ligęza from the Ligęza noble family.[3] In the late 19th century, the village had a population of 287.[3]
According to the 1921 census, the village had a population of 216, entirely Polish by nationality and 97.2% Roman Catholic by confession.[4]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), the local forest was the site of a massacre of 104 Poles, including resistance members, committed by the occupiers on June 27, 1940, as part of the AB-Aktion.[5]
