It lies approximately 8 kilometres (5 mi) south-west of Nowy Sącz and 73 km (45 mi) south-east of the regional capital Kraków.[1]

The village was first mentioned in 1469. In 1788 German-speaking Lutheran settled here in the course of Josephine colonization.[2] They built a church that became a religious centre for Lutherans living in other nearby Josephine colonies.
