Many of the new settlers were Germans, to whom many place names in the area can be traced back, for example Dursztyn (Dürrenstein), Trybsz (Drive), Frydman (Friedmann), Kacwin (Katzwinkel) or Falsztyn (Falkenstein). The Gothic parish church was donated in 1310. From 1314 the village belonged to the Order of Knights of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem out Miechów.
