During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), Rusinowo was the site of a massacre of around 200 Poles from the nearby town of Rypin and the Rypin County, carried out by Germany as part of the genocidal Intelligenzaktion.[2] In 1942, the occupiers also carried out expulsions of Poles, whose farms were then handed over to Germans as part of the Lebensraum policy.[3]
