The area became part of the emerging Duchy of Poland under its first ruler Mieszko I around 967,[2][3] and following Poland's fragmentation in 1138, it formed part of the Duchy of Pomerania. During the Thirty Years' War, the settlement fell to the Swedish Empire under the suzerainty of the Holy Roman Empire. Later on, it passed to Prussia. From 1871, it was part of Germany until the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II. In 1945, the area was reintegrated into Poland, within which it was known as Podejuch.
