history

Łapszanka is one of the fourteen villages in the Polish Spiš .

The place was established in the 16th century as a daughter settlement of Łapsze Wyżne. Until the first half of the 17th century it was inhabited by many Russians , probably from Osturňa . In 1589 Albrecht Łaski sold the village to György Horváth.

In the 19th century, Slovak became the language of the church and schools, but the local Gorals spoke Goral , a dialect of Polish descent that was always considered Slovak in the Hungarian censuses, unlike the Goral villages of the Arwa . A policy of Magyarization was later pursued.

In 1918, after the end of the First World War and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, the village became part of the newly formed Czechoslovakia. As a result of the Czechoslovak-Polish border conflicts in the Spiš area, the place was assigned to the Second Polish Republic in 1920. Between 1920 and 1925 he belonged to the powiat Spisko-Orawski , from July 1, 1925 to the powiat Nowotarski. In 1921 the community had 51 houses with 278 inhabitants, all of them Roman Catholic Poles.

From 1939 to 1945 the village became part of the Slovak State .

From 1975 to 1998 Łapszanka was part of the Nowy Sącz Voivodeship .
