The pagan Prussians originally lived here . Since 1243 the Diocese of Ermland was part of the Teutonic Order . After the Second Peace of Thorn in 1466, Warmia was subordinated to the Crown of Poland as an autonomous duchy of Warmia . With the first partition of Poland in 1772, Warmia became part of the Kingdom of Prussia and later the Province of East Prussia .
Pissau ( Waldensee from 1910 to 1945 ) belonged to the Rößel district from 1818 to 1945 . The rural community of Pissau belonged to the Elsau district from May 1874 . On October 24, 1910, the rural community of Pissau was renamed Waldensee .
Based on the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Waldensee belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Waldensee, 280 people voted to remain with East Prussia, Poland did not receive any votes.
After January 20, 1945 Waldensee was captured by the Red Army . After the war ended, the village became part of the People's Republic of Poland and was renamed Piszewo .
