History
The origins of the village date back to 1557, when Marcin Krzywiński bought 4 włókas of land to establish a village.{{cite book|author= |title=Słownik geograficzny Królestwa Polskiego i innych krajów słowiańskich, Tom IV|year=1883|language=pl|location=Warsaw|page=809}} The village historically had two equivalent Polish names, Krzywińskie and Krzywinki, both derived from the last name of its founder. It was settled by Poles. Under Nazi Germany, the village was renamed Sonnheim to erase traces of Polish origin. Following World War II, in 1945, the village became again part of Poland and its historic Polish name was restored.
