Wojtal was a royal village of the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Tuchola County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship.[2]
During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1940, the occupiers carried out expulsions of Poles, who were deported to the General Government (German-occupied central Poland), while their farms were then handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.[3]
