On January 8, 1894, the rural communities of Lipniak, Kokosken (1938 to 1945 Kleinlindengrund , Polish Kokoszki ) and Wysockigrund merged to form the new rural community of Wysockigrund (1932 to 1945 Lindengrund , Polish Wysoki Grąd ). For political and ideological reasons to defend against foreign-sounding place names, Lipniak was renamed "Lindenheim" on June 3rd - officially confirmed on July 16th - 1938.

As a result of the war, the village and the whole of southern East Prussia were transferred to Poland in 1945 and received the former name "Lipniak" back as a Polish form of name.
