History

The village dates back to the Middle Ages. It was located in 1369 by Bishop Jan Stryprock.[3] In the 15th century, the village suffered as a result of the Polish-Teutonic wars.[3] Bishop Jan Dantyszek issued a new location privilege in 1538.[3] A school was established in Tuławki in the 18th century.[3] The historic Saint Michael Archangel church, consecrated in the 18th century by Polish bishop and poet Ignacy Krasicki, is located in the village.[4]
