Following the joint German-Soviet invasion of Poland, which started World War II in September 1939, the village was first occupied by the Soviet Union until 1941, and then by Germany until 1944. In July 1941, the German Police Battalion 322expelled the entire population, and then plundered and destroyed the village.[2] In 1942, two former inhabitants were publicly hanged by the Germans in Białowieża, and one woman was deported to the Stutthof concentration camp and murdered there.[2] The purpose of the expulsion was to hinder the activities of the resistance movement in the area.[2] After the war some people returned, and the village was rebuilt.
