Before 1945 the area was part of Germany, and the name of the village was Temnick. Originally Temnick had been a fief of the German noble family von Delitz.[2] The estate was sold in 1789 by Berend Ludwig von Delitz.[3] Following World War II the native German populace was expelled and replaced by Poles.
