Historically, the town was once home to between 80 and 110 Jews.[2] In 1828, there were 100 Jews living there. The community had a synagogue, cemetery, mikveh, cheder, and employed a religious teacher/ritual slaughterer who also served several neighbouring communities. By the latter half of the 19th century, the number of Jews in the village was diminishing, as young people moved to larger cities. At the beginning of the 20th century, about 100 Jews still remained in the village, and by 1940, only 70 remained. In 1942, most of the remaining Jews were sent to extermination camps. After liberation, no Jews returned to settle in the village.[3]
