history
The village of Lipki was founded in the 17th century. From 1940 coal mining began in the neighboring villages. In 1949 the village was raised to the status of an urban-type Lipkowski ( Липковский ) settlement . When it gained town status in 1955, the old name Lipki was restored. Today coal is no longer mined, but there is a brick factory and a (large) bakery.
