It seems unlikely that there was any major community on the site of the original or the current villages.

The current old village was built during the 17th and 18th centuries.

The current village was built during the early 1900s.

The current village extends on either side of the valley to the north and south.

A settlement has been located in the general area of the current village, since the early 19th century.

The current village has 1879 inhabitants as of 1 January 2006.

The current village arose in the 13th century from an older settlement.

The land just south of the current village was found to be ripe with coal.

This was situated a little to the north of the current village.

Located to the west of the current village, the site is now a Polish national museum.
