In the years from 1959 to 1975 their area belonged to the powiat Iławski , which was dissolved in 1975. It belonged to the Olsztyn Voivodeship from 1946 to 1975 and then to the Elbląg Voivodeship until 1998 . The city rights were granted again in 1986. Urban and rural parishes were united to form urban and rural parishes in 1990/1991.
