history

The small village called Sutzoken before 1717 and Sutzken until 1934 was founded in 1484.

A total of 126 inhabitants were registered in Sutzken in 1910, compared to 135 in 1933. Due to the provisions of the Versailles Treaty , the population in the Allenstein voting area , to which Sutzken belonged, voted on July 11, 1920 to continue to belong to East Prussia (and thus to Germany) or the connection to Poland. In Sutzken, 80 residents voted to remain with East Prussia, while Poland did not vote.

On October 29, 1934, Sutzken was renamed "Morgengrund". The population was 131 in 1939.
