The village, once also called Kottla , was founded in 1445 as an interest village with 46 hooves by the Teutonic Knight Order .

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Groß Kessel belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Groß Kessel, 280 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not vote.

As a result of the war, Groß Kessel came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name “Kocioł”. The village of Kocioł Duży is only one and a half kilometers to the south-east , although it is related to the name, but is not historically linked to the former Groß Kessel.
