In 1910 175 people lived in the Nickelsdorf estate.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Nickelsdorf belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether it would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Nickelsdorf, 100 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not cast any votes.

On October 17, 1928, the two neighboring estate districts of Nickelsdorf and Trautzig (today in Polish: Track, district of Olsztyn) merged to form the new rural community of Trautzig-Nickelsdorf, which had a total of 248 inhabitants in 1933 and 267 in 1939.

The village is now part of the Gmina wiejska (rural community) Barczewo (Wartenburg) in the Olsztyński powiat of the Warmian-Masurian Voivodeship (1975 to 1998 Olsztyn Voivodeship ).
