History


During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), on August 29, 1944, the village was the site of a battle between the underground Polish Home Army and German troops.[2] It ended in a Polish victory. Four Poles were killed and two were wounded in the battle.[2] In retaliation for the battle, the Germans committed pacifications of nearby villages of Małaszek, Plewki and Lipniak-Majorat, killing around 500 Poles.[3]
