history
The Gutsort, then known as Niederhoff , was founded in 1848. In the public Official Journal on February 29 under the date was in 1848 to read: The outworks in the Feldmark Dominii Bischdorf, circle Rößel, newly created (is) been settled, the name "Niederhoff" ... .

In 1885 there were 89 inhabitants, in 1905 53 and in 1910 only 39 inhabitants.
Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population voted in the referendums in East and West Prussia on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus Germany) or join Poland. In Niederhof, 40 people voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.
As a result of the war, Niederhof came to Poland in 1945 along with all of southern East Prussia and received the Polish form of the name “Nisko”. Today it is a place within the urban and rural municipality Bisztynek (Bischofstein) in the powiat Bartoszyce ( Bartenstein district ), until 1998 the Olsztyn Voivodeship , since then it belongs to the Warmia-Masurian Voivodeship .
