In 1789, Klötzen is referred to as a noble farm with an outwork and twelve fireplaces (households). In the first half of the 19th century, the manor was owned by the Rosenberg-Gruszczynski family . Around 1876 the real privy councilor and royal chamberlain, Baron von Rosenberg, sat on the Klötzen manor. In the Franco-Prussian War (1870–1871) he lost two nephews, of which the younger, 23-year-old Max Emil Adalbert von Rosenberg-Gruszczynski (1847–1870), who was born in Gallnau, was buried in the family crypt on Klötzen in the fall of 1870 was.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Marienwerder voting area , to which Klötzen belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Klötzen, 131 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not cast any votes.

By merging the five manor districts

The new rural community of Klötzen was established in 1928.

In 1945 the municipality of Klötzen belonged to the Marienwerder district in the Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia of the German Empire .

Towards the end of the Second World War , the region was occupied by the Red Army in early 1945 after fighting with the Wehrmacht . In the summer of 1945, according to the Potsdam Agreement , Klötzen was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying forces, along with all of West Prussia and the southern half of East Prussia . As far as the residents had not fled, they were expelled from Klötzen in the following period .
