The year of foundation of the small and then Tuelkeinenn village is the year 1557. In the following years the place had different forms of name: Tewelkemen (before 1589), Perschdenn (after 1596), Bartszen (before 1785), Thewelkehmen (until 1938).

Between 1874 and 1945 Thewelkehmen was incorporated into the Loyen district, which was called "Loien District" from 1939 to 1945 and was part of the Goldap district in the Gumbinnen district of the Prussian province of East Prussia for the duration of its existence .

In 1910 115 inhabitants were registered in Thewelkehmen. Their number rose to 128 by 1933 and was 185 in 1939.

On June 3 (officially confirmed on July 16) 1938 Thewlekehmen received the name Tulkeim in the course of the National Socialist renaming campaign . In 1945, the village in war-induced was with the whole southern East Prussia to Poland transferred.
