History
There is a hill near the village, which was a tribal stronghold in pagan times.[4]
In the late 19th century, the village had a population of 368, partly Polish, and entirely Lutheran.[4] There were two paper mills in the village, and a post office from which mail was going towards Ełk, Gołdap and Gumbinnen.[4]
