In 1344, Margrave Ludwig von Wittelsbach gave the community of Landsberg an der Warthe the field mark of the deserted village of Dessen (adze). As late as 1608, Adze belonged to the property-owned villages of Landberg, each of which had a fief. Adze is one of the few villages in the interior of the upper Warthebruch that already existed in pagan times. The main source of income for the villagers was agriculture and forestry. The village had a Protestant mother church and a primary school.

Until 1945, adze belonged to the Landsberg (Warthe) district in the Brandenburg administrative district of Frankfurt of the German Empire .

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in the spring of 1945 . Soon after, adze was placed under Polish administration. The immigration of Polish migrants began, some of whom came from areas east of the Curzon Line conquered by Poland after the First World War .
