The town is founded in 1552. Before the war, there was a significant Jewish population. In January 10, 1942, 227 Jews from the village are murdered by an Einsatzgruppen. The next day, 12 Jews are also shot in a mass execution. A memorial is built on the site of the massacre.[1]

In June 1942, the Werwolf (Wehrmacht HQ) is built with forced labor.
