The village of Rehhof, which belonged to the Teutonic Order in the 14th century , came to the autonomous Prussian Royal Part (West Prussia) after the Second Peace of Thorn in 1466 , which had voluntarily submitted to the sovereignty of the Polish crown and the nearby town of Marienwerder was part of the Duchy of Prussia . Since the first Polish partition in 1772, the village belonged to the Kingdom of Prussia .

Around 1785, Reehoff, located in the Great Marienburger Werder in the so-called Rehhofschen Winkel , consisted of a Vorwerk with five fireplaces (households) and a village with 34 fireplaces.

Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Marienwerder voting area , to which Rehhof belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 on whether they would continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or join Poland. In Rehhof, 1185 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland received 64 votes.

Rehhof belonged in 1945 to the district Stuhm in marienwerder in Reichsgau Danzig-West Prussia of the German Reich.

Towards the end of the Second World War , the Red Army occupied the region in the spring of 1945 . In the summer of 1945, Rehhof was placed under Polish administration by the Soviet occupying power in accordance with the Potsdam Agreement, along with all of West Prussia and the southern half of East Prussia . The Polish place name Ryjewo was introduced. Polish civilians immigrated, some of whom came from the areas east of the Curzon Line that fell to the Soviet Union . Unless the villagers had fled, they were expelled from Rehhof in the following period .
