For the year 1789, Klein Katz is described as a noble Vorwerk and Käthnerdorf with 36 fireplaces. At that time it had a Lutheran church, two steel hammers, a paper and water grinder. It belonged to the Stolzenberg judicial district and the main district of Oliva . The landowner was a major general Graf von Krokow . The district was incorporated into Gdynia on June 13, 1935. During the German occupation , the Germans changed the name of the district to Klein Katz.
