There were 129 “souls” in the village, they also belonged to the Horlowicze estate, which belonged to Felix Wyslouch (206 “souls”). During the uprising of 1863–64, the estate was used as an ammunition depot for the rebels.</p>
<p>After that, the Orlovic family became the owners from the Rusecky family.</p>

<p>From 1921 to 1939, it was part of Wolowiel Commune, Drohiczyn County, Poleskie Voivodeship, Poland.</p>
<p>In 1921, the village had 14 courtyards and 92 inhabitants. The folwark had 2 courtyards and 17 inhabitants.</p>

<p>From 04.12.1939, with the arrival of Soviet power, the village became part of Drohichyn district, Pinsk region, BSSR.</p>

<p>During World War II, 5 inhabitants of the village died at the front. During the war, a secondary school operated in the manor.</p>

<p>The manor house was likely built under the Wyslouch family. It was wooden, rectangular, with a mansard roof and tiled covering. Inside were living rooms, a library, kitchen, and bedrooms.</p>
<p>Remnants of the old park are preserved. Today it occupies about 5 hectares. A linden avenue and various tree species (maples, lindens, chestnuts, oaks) remain.</p>
<p>There is an approximate plan of the park:</p>
