The village was associated with the Vistula river crossing. It was mentioned in 1321 and received privileges in 1344. The sources from 1776 mentioned the following Mennonite surnames: Konrad, Dick, Ens, and Claassen. In 1820, the village had 289 residents, including 31 Mennonites. The petition from 1868 was signed by Claasen, Peter Dau, Isaak Dyck, Adolf and Jakob Harder, J. Rogalsky, Wiebe, Wiens (landowners), and Joann Nickel (a merchant). Village layout - a single sided linear village and a flood bank linear village. The cultural landscape of the village has been preserved in the large part with a detectable spatial layout and homesteads. Examples of historical architecture include the Częstochowska Mother of God wooden church from 1712, a half-timbered house from the end of the 18th century, 3 wooden houses from the end of the 19th century, a Dutch windmill, 8 - 10 brick buildings from the end of the 19th century and the 1st quarter of the 20th century, and outbuildings. Some of the buildings are decorated with religious symbols. There is an old cemetery with old trees and contemporary graves. Buildings located by the flood bank have been transformed. A field layout and a system of draining ditches have survived. No. 61 is a house situated in a colony, on the eastern side
of the road to Boręty, facing it with its ridge. The building was erected
in 1895 for an owner with initials C.F. It is a single storey, brick
building resting on a brick underpinning and has a pointing sill and a
double-pitched, ceramic roof. The gable elevation has 4 axes, a 4-axial
gable, and two windows enclosed by narrow skylights. Above, there are cast
plates with six-pointed stars and a centrally located circular skylight.
Brick elevations have various forms of brick cornices and heavy pinnacles
in corners and gable finials. The western elevation has 5 axes and an
entrance located in the 3rd axis from the south decorated by six-pointed
stars. The homestead also has a partially preserved outbuilding, which
functioned as a cowshed, a granary, and a coach house. It is a brick
building with rich architectural detail. In addition to the owner's
initials and the building completion date, the western elevation has a
motif of a six-pointed star made of bricks. Stankiewicz, s. 537Lipińska,t.3- 211, AG IV, BF, MP. |
